Replace Text And Select Only Certain Letters?
Sep 9, 2010
Okay, this is more than just a find text and replace it. how to select only certain letters ( such as A and T will be used in this example ) and replace them with another. For example, I have a document that says:
Hello this is a test application. Thank you for testing!
and i save it, i want it to in a way to encrypt it, what do i mean? i mean like replace all the letters with other, then apply the opposite code for opening the file to "decrypt" it. Like what i would replace is something like change all the A's to T's. But the thing is i need to do this for all the letters. Im sure there are places on how to find and replace text, thats easy, but is there a way to do this in simple lines of codes without having to write a seperate code for all 26 letters?

I have a bunch of object variables which are all initialised in their declarations such that:
Private _myObject As New ThisObject("SomeString")
where ThisObject is one of a number of object types, but all are initialised using a string.
I would like to use the Visual Studio Find/Replace dialog box to search for "As New" then replace everything from "As New" to the first set of speech marks with some text such that:
EDIT
My original example could be solved using other methods. This example is more representative of the actual problem:
Private _myObjectA As New ThisObjectA("SomeString")
Private _myObjectLongName As New ThisObjectLongName("SomeString")

I'm trying to make a text ecrypter/decrypter were I can choose how it gets encrypted. So i'm using the 'Replace' method to replace a letter to a different letter. But what happens is, only some of the letters convert correctly! What some a doing is converting themselves twice. So if A gets replaced by B and B gets replaced by A, if i entered A, it would convert to B, then back to A.[code]...

I'm keeping track of some things that are numbered and others that are lettered; while NumericUpDown is perfect for selecting numbered things, I need an analogue for selecting lettered things. The obvious choice would be a listbox that just contains all the letters of the alphabet. But I need to show only the appropriate range of letters, so if I want to use a listbox, I need to write a function that populates the listbox with the first n letters of the alphabet; if n > 26, it should continue with aa, ab, and so on. How do I do this?

I current have an app that I am trying to create. I have 2 List boxes, a textbox, and a command button.What I am trying to do is take about 100 text files that all have certain text in them that I need to change at run time to whatever I put into the textbox. For instance Each Text file has my old company name and I want to be able enter my new name into the textbox and click the command button and the app will open each text file, find the text that I specify and replace it with my new name then save the file into a specified folder.What elements should I be studying to make this happen? So far this is what I've come up with:
OpenFileDialog - to open the file
StreamReader - to read the text files and find the text that I specified
**Not sure on the replace method**
StreamWriter - to write the text from the textbox to the new file
SaveFileDialog - to save the file to the specified location

both 1 & 2 the above strings are fictitious (i made them up to make my point clear)
I am trying to make a licensing system for my VB 2010 express application. (2) above will act as a serial key which can be derived from (1) which is an encrypted form of something unique of the client computer.
I will then confirm the (2) from the client.

I've been looking through the FCL for a method that will allow me to erase a line of text from a text file and replace it with another line of text. Neither the StreamReader nor StreamWriter have a method for replacing or removing Text from a text file, as does the string object. Are there any available methods for erasing just certain lines of text from a file, and then replacing them with others?
In my code, I'd like to locate a certain line in the text file, and then at that point in the text file, use a For...Next Loop to replace each successive line of the text file with new text:
Dim user_data_file As String = "user_data.txt"
edit_input = New StreamReader(user_data_file)
Dim edit_line As String = edit_input.ReadLine
[CODE]...
However, I can't find any methods that will allow me to do this.

Document.Content.Find.Execute("Subject/ Title:", , , , , , , , , "Subject/ Title: Insert Subject here")
I found the code above that is extremely useful for my project. It replaces the first string with the second. But now I need to bring my code one step further. I would like the text from after the colon to be underlined. I tried using a range but it didn't work. Secondly, that only works if there's text to look for in the first place! I would like to put text in an empty cell. How do I locate the cell programmatically? It's the second table in the document's second row.

RTB2.Text = RTB2.Text.Replace("f", ".")
[Code].....
It is successfully removing 2, f and s..but it won't remove all the blank spaces. I am wanting my string to remove all the spaces...example "22f 33s 99y" would become 22.3399 instead of 22.33 99
