I am trying to manipulate a string to get to a part of the string inside 2 specified characters. Getting anything inside the > and the space. string starting with: jk;fhdididlsls/"f>Dog (467838) fgdad
I am trying to get "Dog" out of this.
dim x as string
dim y as string
x="jk;fhdididlsls/"f>Dog (467838) fgdad"
y = x.Split(">" , " ")
MsgBox(y.Join(""))
It will somehow always error out: value of 1-dimension array of string cannot be converted to string
I have a string of characters, but I would like to have a string of hexdecimal characters where the hexadecimal characters are converted by turning the original characters into integers and then those integers into hexadecimal characters. How do I do that?
I have written a program that uses an array of the english alphabet and Morse code. I also built a form with a input box for the alphabetic information and an output box with the Morse Code. What i am trying to do is basically type a word like "Hi" in the input box and produce the Morse Code equivalent in the Morse Code output box. [Code] This works but only one letter at a time. Do i need to Parse the string of characters one at a time, and then run it through a loop like i have created?
I have buttons generated through code (dynamically). I have to associate an event (the same) to them. I use AddHandler button.click, AddressOf mysub.The issue is that mysub gets a string (mysub(string)), but AddressOf doesn't accept a parameter inside the routine. How can I do this? Using also an alternative to AddressOf.
EDIT:
Public Class Form1 ... Private Sub mysub(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs, ByVal str As String)[code]......
Using VB.NET, Is there a way to do this RegEx call in 1 step... instead of 2-3? I'm trying to find the word "bingo", or whatever is between the START and END words, but then also inside the inner FISH and CAKES words. My final results should be just "bingo".
Dim s1 As String = "START (random string) FISH bingo CAKES (random string) END"
Not sure if too many people know this, but the following line will cause an error:
GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_"
....if the length of GroupName is less than 3 characters. I always thought it would simply return whatever characters in GroupName, but no, it errors. I must be thinking of the old VB6 days.So, I now have to change the code to:
If (GroupName.Length > 2) Then If (GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_") Then
Note that the two comparisons need to be on separate lines. If they are on the same line, such as:
If (GroupName.Length > 2) and (GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_") Then then the code will still fail as the length command is executed at the same time as the substring command- which will cause the error when the GroupName length is less than 3.Just thought that those of us not aware of this should be!
Do you understand what I mean? For each two characters, the numerical character swapping place with the following letter, i.e. from 1a change it to a1.how to rearrange the numerical characters and letters in the string? My string always has the said pattern, i.e. one integer then followed by a letter then followed by a integer then followed by a letter and so on.
I have a string value (which is a hex value) that is displayed as so...F8 30 00 3D FC 13 F8 30 00 01 31 73 34 FE 34 DE F8 30 00 3D FC 13 F8 30 00 01 31 73 34 FE 34 DE F8 30 00 3D FC 13 F8 30 00 01 31 73 34 FE 34 DEThis continues on in this exact pattern. What I am trying to do is to get a " " inserted after the first 24 characters, and then after the next 24, delete a character and place an Enter or Return value. Then I would like another " " after the next 24, and then after 24 more, delete a character and place an Enter or Return value so on until the end of the string. The format would then look like this.[code]I know this is probably done with some type of array and loop, but I'm not even sure where to get started.
I've got a program that in a nutshell reads values from a SQL database and writes them to a tab-delimited text file.The issue is that some of the values in the database have special characters (TM, dash, ellipsis, etc.) When written to the text file, the formatting is lost and they come across as junk "â„¢ or â€" etc"
When the value is viewed in the immediate window, before it is written to the txt file, everything looks fine. My guess is that this is an issue of encoding. But, I'm not real sure how to proceed, where to look, or what to look for.Is this ASCII or UTF-8? If it's one of those how do I correct it before it's written to the text file.Here's how I build the text file (where feedStr is a StringBuilder)
objReader = New StreamWriter(filePath) objReader.Write(feedStr) objReader.Close()
I am just a beginner in VB programming. What if I want to check if a certain subtext is present in a string? For example, what do I code if I want to check if the word "hello" is present in a particular string or not?
I am in a rather silly situation...suppose I have a text box in which I enter a line of text/characters/numbers...how would I be able to display the last two or first two (or may be middle two?) characters into another text box.
Example: I write "Hello World!" in the first text box and the program should display the first two characters from that text box, i.e. "he".
Sometimes the middle part may contain more than 5 characters, so it could look like this: "xxx-12345AB-xxx" Sometimes there's no second dash, so a string could look like this: "xxx-12345"
I have a query to solve for which I have coded. But my code produces output only for those hardcoded values found in the text file. I have a text file which is given as the input to my code. The text file contains lines with "_DIA" , "_DIA_some number" etc. In this case I need to remove few letters from that field.
Eg: 1)if the name field contains 1234567_DIA_2.PRT, I need to remove "_DIA_2" from the name field and concatenate the .PRT with the number. 2)if the name field contains 1234567_DIA1.PRT, then remove "_DIA1" and concatenate. I need to store the number of characters removed and add so many number of blank spaces with the name field after the concatenation.
for the 1) case I need to concatenate and add 6 spaces with the name field. for the 2) case I need to concatenate and add 5 spaces with the name field.
I'm not sure how to find the number of characters from "_" to ".", underscore need to be considered in the counting and the dot(.) should not be taken into account.
Ok I am on the last part of this part of my project... If I have a strings like[code]...
I am having to parse address information out of a file... The parser works fine for addresses that do not contain a CR which means County Road. So I am thinking I can strip the address part out of the string I am passing into the parser by using something like.[code]...
I don't think you understood the title, but this is what I mean: If a path string is "C:UsersUserNameImages2010NovemberMyDogMondayDog1.png" for example... How could you like cut it to 30 characters: "C:UsersUserName...Dog1.png".
Say I open a text file in a richtextbox control. After that I search for a specific string like "6.1". The string actually continues like "6.1XXXXXXX". I need to get not just only "6.1", but also 2 more chars after "6.1", like "6.1XX". I will then output this in a textbox, but I can do that, I don't know how to get the X number of characters.
I'm attempting to modify some random password generator code, and wanted to do something a little different. I would like to list all uppercase, lowercase, numeric and special characters next to a text box. In the four text boxes, you would select how many characters from each set you would like in your password. For example 4 uppercase, 2 lowercase, 3 numbers and 2 special characters. That would generate a random password 11 characters long. I can generate random passwords now, and have included a text box which allows the length of the password to be specified, but i would like the granularity of selecting from each set.[code]
