Right now im using
If ListBox1.FindStringExact(TextBox2.Text) = "0" Then
Label2.Text = "yes"
GoTo procheck
[Code]....
and it searches the first item in the listbox correctly but nothing else. Im assuming im going to need to loop through the listbox somehow?
[Code] Which (when looped) checks all items that contain X, However, I am getting a lot of false positives (i.e. if PGA is legit, PGA, LPGA, JLPGA, WHATEVERPGA will all be highlighted as well) Any way to change .indextof to an .exactindexof or something?
View 1 RepliesI have been using the following code to remove text from strings so far;
String = Replace(String, "TextToChange", "")
However, I now would like to remove two words only when the occur consecutively for example, I would like to remove "Task 1", not all instances of the word "Task" and value "1".
Some tips and exsample for searching in listbox.
View 10 Repliesif it is possible for me to go to the specified listbox item via searching. Example;
Listbox1 items are
Apple
Banana
Guava
Pineapple
Peach
When I key in the word Apple in a textbox, the SelectedItem would go to Apple,
I have a listbox, and its like this:
13
45
sdfg
34
13
And a button, which I want to search if the listbox has atleast 2 same value's [13 , 13], and delete it. So It will be:
13
45
sdfg
35
i want to select all items from listbox1 and then use that items for searching.if it finds the items, it will be displayed on listbox2 and if not, it will be displayed on listbox3.give a simple code for this? i am thinking of making listbox1 items into string so that it would be more easy for searching.
View 11 RepliesI have a listbox with multiple items:
Quote:
The Sopranos (Season 5) Boxset (DVD)
Braveheart (DVD)
MTV The City - Complete Second Season 2 (DVD)
I have a TextBox where a user enters a search:
The Sopranos Season 5 Since ListBox.FindString() wants a String and not a RegEx, I can't use a Regular Expression. (right?) So, if TextBox.Text = "The Sopranos Season 5", then ListBox.FindString(TextBox.Text) will not find my entry with "The Sopranos (Season 5) Boxset (DVD)".

View 4 Repliesi have this code [code]i want it to return me only 1 value which is the exact text as textbox1.text.
View 1 Repliesi have this code
vb
For Each sWord As String In listbox1.Items
If textbox1.text.Contains(sWord) Then
but the problem is if the textbox1.text value is ( new text ) and the list box have like 3 items
new
new text
text
it will return me 3 values i want it to return me only 1 value which is the exact text as textbox1.text ( new text )
I know the sort of a thread is already here, but I have a different question. I have ListBox1 and TextBox1 and the Items of ListBox1 are:California
Chicago Washington and as I start typing the text into the TextBox1 (TextBox1_TextChanged), then it will select the first Item in ListBox1,that is closest to the text in TextBox1:
For example:
If I type "A" to the TextBox1, it will select California (California)
If I type "C" to the TextBox1, it will select again California (California)
If I type "CH" to the TextBox1, it will select the Chicago (Chicago)
AND!!! If I type "SH" to the TextBox1, it will select the Washington (Washington)
so it won't only search the first letters, but it will even search the letters in the middle of the text, too.
Disable dynamic searching when typing in a listbox?
View 1 RepliesI will include a link to a copy of my source Code. The Problem is that I have to create a user management system. I have almost all my features working but there are one or two I can't get working. When the program loads a text file is read and the program lists the first name of everyone in the text file into a list box. I want to be able to get so that when you click a name in the list box, the persons information will be displayed in the text boxes to the left. And also when you edit those text boxes you can click the button for modify current and it will modify that persons data. The other problem I'm having is being able to search that text file for the users e-mail and return the first names of people who have that e-mail into the listbox.

I have a code to search for specified text in all listbox items. Here it is:
ListBox2.Items.Clear()
For Each item In ListBox1.Items
If item.ToString.Contains(TextBoxDropDown1.Text) Then
[code]....
This works fine. But if I have search for this:
"My Search"
I wont find this:
My sEarCh"
Is there any way to search for text of any casing, and if so how can I adapt my code to do this.
I got this
If File.Contains(Searchwhat) Then
Countnr = Countnr + 1
VinBox.Items.Add(filename)[code]....
That code works great to search for one string, but how can i search for multiple strings in the file? Lets say that "Searchwhat" looks like "GFR,EPB,IKJ" and if the file i am searching in can find all that in the file it will add the filename to the Pathlistbox.
I have a problem when searching an XML string. The problem is that I can't get it to work. I have a big XML in a string, and I only need 2 values that are each in seperate elements. It is hard to explain so it's best I just show it.This is my XML: (sorry it's very long, but I want it to be complete so my question can be answered properly).
<transactions result="1">
<transaction raisewarning="false" result="1" location="temporary">
<header>
[code]....
For each <transaction> I need the value of <Number> that is in <Header> and the value of <invoicenumber> in <line (id=1)> ... I have colored the elements in my sentence the same as I colored them in my big XML?The number of <transaction>'s can vary for each XML (these are a webservice response).I've been looking for 2 days now, and I can't seem to grasp this XML stuff unfortunately.

I am trying to use the left(string, 1) command as described in a couple other threads to just test the first character on the left but the only left function I can find relates to the left coordinates of the textbox.

View 2 RepliesI need to accum some data based on whether or not an SSN number appears in the data. I have it in a string, what I need to do is search for a numeric pattern within the string such as:I looked into regex a bit, but I don't have much time to read deep into it (my company needs the program this week) and it seems too complex to grasp in such a short time. What I've came across so far is:
If (rec.address1 Like "###-##-####")
but I don't know if this will filter it out of the string (it can appear with an address attached to it).
I'm sure but can't see the answer. Currently going through a string "DO While Not ts_IN.AtEndOfStream" looking for information. This includes then checking another string (while inside the first) for matching reference point for further data.
So within the first loop, I have a second loop "Do While Not ts_IN2.AtEndOfStream". And looping through that string searching for the reference point.
This works initially, but after awhile don't find anything because it is not going back to the start of ts_IN2 string each time loops on the first section.
It seems simple enough, but apparently I cant figure it out. Theres more to my actual problem, but once I figure out this concept then I can do the rest. I want to search a list for a given string, and if it matches, then print it out. If it doesnt match, then it moves to the next item in the list. If if doesnt find any matches, it says "no matches found".

I have a program which grabs the source code of a webpage and puts it into a string. I would now like to search the string for two values.
"video_id": "value 1 here"
"t": "value 2 here"
The problem, is that I don't know the position of the values, and I the values change depending on each webpage. All I know, is the text before the value, e.g. "video_id" and "t:"
Here is my code:
Dim videoid As String = TextBox1.Text.Trim
Dim wc As New System.Net.WebClient()
Dim result As String = wc.DownloadString(videoid)

I have the following simple code for searching for a text string within a folder and have several questions:
Dim searchFolder As String = "C:BakerOrders estOrders"
Dim files As ReadOnlyCollection(Of String)
files = My.Computer.FileSystem.FindInFiles(searchFolder, "NEXT DAY PM", True,
[Code].....
The folder will contain up to 1,000 text files (at any point) at 20kb to 50kb each. The scan should occur every 5 sec with ~200 new files and (-) ~200 exiting files during this period.
Questions: The previous code only catch files from 1 text string. Is there a way of doing one search and returning the files which contain any of the 3 strings? Is there a more effective way of achieving this? Is there a simple / effective way of searching each file only one time by keep track of previous results while searching only the 200 new additions each scan?
