View 3 RepliesI have a maskedtextbox as I want to force the user to enter only a IP address. My mask is: ### . ### . ### . ###
I have entered spaces between to dots and at both ends. This is what the user wants. I guess makes it easier to read.
However, I need to remove the spaces and have written the code below. However, I think I have done this in an over complex way. By using a char array.
And when I try to print the end result in a message box I get this 'System.char[]'
' Save all the configuration settings
Private Sub btnSave_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)

I have a question about Select Case. My code (psuedocode) is this
[Select Case name
Case number
name=Remove(num, 1, " ") ]
What this needs to do is to remove spaces at the end of a number and lets say that the number would look like this "C12345" but what I want is for the number to look like this "12345". I have it as a hyperlike but for some reason when at the link in the code it had added some spaces at the end of the number and I do not know why. What I want to have happen is when the hyperlink is click that it will go right to that number but it does not. When you click it you have to go to the top of the page (where the http is at) to to the end of the link and back space. Once you have done that it will go to the page that you want.
I just changed a control on a form from a masked textbox to a normal textbox because I wrote my own code to validate the data. I'm trying to clear the leading spaces that were created for this column in an Access database using the LTrim function and it doesn't work for some reason. The column is " :30" in the table and when I LTrim it and save the changes, it's still " :30" , not ":30". Is that leading entry not a space character?
View 4 RepliesI have some HUGE text files (easily around 2000+ lines) I need to clean where some of the formatting is like this:
CODE:
Of course there are more than 2 words in the lines, but what I said was just an example. I have to clean these files and I just want to know how to delete the whole line after the spaces (including the gibberish), but I don't want to delete the spaces in between the words that need to stay.
I was thinking I could test for 2 or more spaces and if that's true then delete the rest of the line beginning at the first space. The only issue is there are tabs sometimes between the words and I don't want to mess with those right now. (I have no clue how to make source that deletes spaces but not tabs... Perhaps you can single out tabs?)
Because of the formatting to make the text files look "cleaner" there are sometimes 5 (least) - 8 spaces (max) between each some words. So should I check for 9 spaces? (1 more than 8). There seriously are huge amounts of spaces between the words and the gibberish.
I'll worry about formatting the text and what not later, right now I'm only asking for help with the spaces and gibberish issue .
I'm usually a C++ man, not used to VB.NET (2005) but I will only be using this project for cleaning these files and the dialogs are much easier to make than MFC for C++. So I figured this would be much faster and easier (except I have very little experience with VB.NET)
how do I validate that only letters and spaces have been entered into a text box.
Here is a sample of my
Private Sub btnWrite_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnWrite.Click, mnuWrite.Click
If Not txtName.Text Like "[a-z][A-Z]" Then
MessageBox.Show("Please enter your name using letters and spaces", "Error")
txtName.SelectAll()

View 1 RepliesI am trying to remove all spaces from a text field when a form is submitted so that the contents of the post code field match those in a database...
If drSet5c.Tables(0).Rows(0).Item("post_code") = UCase(Replace(tbPostcode.Text, " ","")) Then
response.write("Postcodes match")

So if the postcode in the database is AB12CD and the user types AB1 2CD the space is removed on submitting the form and the match statement shows. This is not working though.

i tried this
TextBox3.Text.Remove(3)
I'm really stuck on something, which, is probably easy, but I've blown hours trying to figure this out.I need to be able to remove 1 line from a textfile. I will always know exactly what line it is, as, it's the same "string" as a variable. So if my variable is called "removeThis" then I need to be able to Read through the textfile, find the line that is equal to the removeThis string variable, and then rewrite the whole textfile.
