View 4 RepliesI want to select a random space in a string and replace it with a word (%word%) but there is a problem. The position cannot be fixed as i want it to be inserted at a random break. Few things which iam considering :
1)break the string at a space and merge it with the word
2) find a random space and replace it with the word. I like this point and so far all i have is break the selectedtext into string array and then iterate over each line. But i don't know how to find a random string position? Any short and sweet code please?

How can I parse out undesireable characters from a collection of data?I am working with existing VB.NET code for a Windows Application that uses StreamWriter and Serializer to output an XML document of transaction data. Code below.

The original string is like this: sLine = " 1 Screen"
What I want is this: sLine = "000001 Screen" (I do want to keep the space between the number and the text, so that is why its not just a replace) What I see with the following code is this: sLine = "01 Screen" Some how the replace does the first char, but then is not adding the zeros to the rest of the string, its just removing them (somehow I think it must think integer?

I'm still in the learning stages sorry, and this is probably simple to most of you but I couldn't find the answer through searching.I'm trying to work out how to replace each successive space in a piece of text with a single character from "% $ ! @ #" in that order, and loop.
Easier to explain with an example;say I have the text: "This is a piece of text I am using as an example."
It should end up looking like this: "This%is$a!piece@of#text%I$am!using@as#an%example."

Is there any third party component that has to be used to solve the problem...
The file reads in parameters and two of the parameters used to be in Date Format YYYYMMDD but will now permanently be in format YYYY-MM-DD. This change, I believe, is stopping the import of the file from working. I would like to replace the new format YYYY-MM-DD back to YYYYMMDD in the code. If possible I'd also like to see some output so I know that the old format has been replaced with the new format. The code is below. I added the two rows with .replace code in green in expecting that to be enough but it is still not working.

So I basically want to make sure that a string entered by the user is valid. Valid being over 10 characters, containing only upper case characters, and only characters A - Z and spaces. The first two were easy, but I'm having trouble with the third, though.What I originally attempted to do was create a loop which checks if the first invalid character is present with the InStr function, by using the characters ASCII value. The next ASCII value is then checked, and so on until it has checked the string for every single invalid character. If an invalid character gets picked up, 1 is added to a variable, and after the loop is finished executing, if the variable is no longer 0, invalid characters have been detected.

View 9 RepliesI have an string that is returned from an xml file and looks similar to this name1="test 1" name2="test2" name3="test 3".I want to split this into 3 elements of key=value. I can't just split using a space because some of my values may contain spaces, e.g., test 1.So, I'd like to split the string using the " before the space. I've tried many variations but can't figure out the correct syntax to specify that my split characters are a " followed by a space. For instance, I've tried text.split({""" "}) but that returns elements split by " and ignores the space after the ".It shouldn't be this difficult. Can someone please help me with the correct syntax?
View 2 RepliesProblem: Your task is to take input from the user in string and give the following options to the user in a menu.
1- Find a String
2- Create sub-string
3- Erase a portion of a sting
4- Replace a word in the string
5- Count number of words and characters in the string without spaces.
6- Capitalize first character of each new sentence and convert the rest
of the characters to lower case.
7- Sort all the words in alphabetical order. (Use Bubble sort algorithm to perform sorting).
To perform all the above mentioned tasks you can only use pointers. Create a function to perform every task.
I've always use String.IsNullOrEmpty to check for a empty string. It recently come to my attention that a " " count as not a empty string. For example,
Dim test As String = " "
If String.IsNullOrEmpty(test) Then
MessageBox.Show("Empty String")
[Code]....
It will show "Not Empty String". So how do we check for " " or " " in a string?
edit: I wasn't aware that " " count as character.
I try to remove empty space from a large string, using replace(), and using regex.
the replace method:
replace
Do While (stripped.IndexOf(Space(2)) >= 0)
stripped = stripped.Replace(Space(2), " ")
Loop
and with regex using its replace with : "/ss+/" - regular expression.
but I am still stuck with empty strings such as :
temp ""String
these string have lengths ranging between 3 and 8, so I have tried to adapt the replace function with something like this:
replace 2
Do While (stripped.IndexOf(Space(4)) >= 0)
stripped = stripped.Replace(Space(4), Space(1))
Loop
