I have a multi line text box that accepts Enter and tab as input, but this data needs to be saved without these characters. When the user loads this data, the text should be displayed as it was originally entered.In PHP, there is a function to replace line breaks and tab characters with and , and with \. I need a similar function here.

I have a situation where data in a field contains CrLf characters. Code has been in place for a couple of years and many records have been affected.Should I add code to catch the CrLf characters at the field level?Should I add code to catch and possibly correct the data before it is uploaded to SQL?Should I modify the upload to catch CrLf characters and possibly correct the data in the upload procedure?Whichever approach is more appropriate, how do I identify CrLf characters and then correct it.
View 6 RepliesIf I set the Text property of a RTB to a string that has CrLf's in it, it seems the RTB reduces the CrLf's to a single character & screws up the positioning to set the SelectionStart property.So, for example, if I know the position of a character in the original string & I set the Selection Start value to that position, the selection highlighting will be off by 1 character if the start position is preceded by a CrLf & off by 2 characters if preceded by 2 CrLf's, etc.So how can I determine the correct position to specify my SelectionStart value?

I have a text file, the file is sent to me, but this file has a particularity, because between characters get special characters, as if the file was a binary file.I put a screenshot. I need to pick up and replace these characters by the character "-", those chracters are at position 13 to 18 on all lines. And sometimes there is a "\n" character that makes it split the line, and this should not happen.

I get some french characters in a string etc.Is there a simple way to replace them with English equivalent with a function or a regex or do i need to do the obvious(parse each character and when acute found replace with the english one)?
View 1 RepliesI've used regular expressions in the past. I have an app that parses a .csv file and replaces certain characters (commas). Here's an example..
item1, item2, item3, fruits are apples, oranges, grapes. Squash is a vegetable, not a fruit.
What my app does is search each line between character1 and character18 and replace all "," with "~". How this is done through regular expressions?
To search a pattern containing parenthesis, they must be escaped using backslashes. So to search for (Streetname) you must use (Streetname). If you don't use , whatever is between () will be retained and available for reference through the variables $1, $2 etc... Exemple, in the sentence "It's worth noting that (StreetName) can be anything...(Post), (TreeStump)", $1=StreetName, $2=Post, $3=TreeStump

But i found a solution for my project. The data from that website is for exmp. "1.02.30" I want to change first dot into semi colon and the second dot into comma, namely "1:20,30". I found replace function and it works if i want to do "1:20:30" that. But I have to change first dot into semi colon and the second dot into comma.

Using VB or C#, I am getting a string of variable length from the database. This information is sensitive information that only certain users will be able to see.I have two cases that will use the same logic (I think).scenario 1: replace all characters with xscenario 2: replace all characters with x except the last 4 characters (assume length > 4 - this check is being done).I thought that this would be easiest using Regex.Replace(input, pattern, replacestring). As opposed to a lot of string handling with substrings and forcing a length of 'x's.

I am trying to do this but it doesn't work:
VB
Dim str As String = "07" & GetBetween("Stephen 0761234567", "07", vbNewLine)Dim op As String = "lol" TextBox1.Text.Replace(str, op)
GetBetween is just a function to match something between something else. That works fine, the string (str) sets as 0761234567 just like I want but when i try to replace the text it doesn't work.
