I have a large piece of text in which there is something simular to this:!#_KT_#!COMMANDHERE!#_KT_#!I want, in VB.Net, to get the 'COMMANDHERE' part of the string, how would I go about doing this? I have this so far:
Dim temp As String = WebBrowser1.Document.Body.ToString
Dim startIndex As Integer = temp.IndexOf("!#__KT__#!") + 1
Dim endIndex As Integer = temp.IndexOf("!#__KT__#!", startIndex)

I have a list of strings. For each string in that list, I want to prepend another string. I wrote a method to do it, but I was wondering if there was something already in .NET I could use to do this. It seems like something that could be built in, but I was not able to find anything.
Here is the method I wrote:
Private Function PrependToAllInList(ByRef inputList As List(Of String), ByRef prependString As String) As List(Of String)
Dim returnList As List(Of String) = New List(Of String)
For Each inputString As String In inputList
returnList.Add(String.Format("{0}{1}", prependString, inputString))

It works, but I would rather use built in functions whenever possible.

I have a string, and I want to search it for multiple strings, which I basically want to use for searching for urls in an HTML file that's been loaded into a string.
so get the value of everything between

preferably simple short code than highly functioning code

I have two List(Of String).Both Lists contain duplicate strings. I want to pick out all the strings which are contained in both the Lists. For example:
List1 ={"10X100","10X100","10X100","50X100","50X100","100X100"}
List2 ={"10X100","10X100","20X100","50X100","50X100","100X100","200X100"}
So, the result should be: List3={"10X100","10X100","50X100","50X100","100X100"}.How to do this?
for example i have two strings 0000 and 0001 then

0001

Is there a way to use [string].Join to concatenate html stings including spaces? I want to join html strings with a special character so I can pass them as an array to javascript from the code behind.
Dim Array(100)

This works great if each item in Array is one word only, but what if each item in Array contains spaces?
I have a problem finding strings that do not exist in a column in a database. I am going to use linq but its more the 'way' of doing I am concerned with.
I have strings like;
MEAL
GPST
EXLEG
EXLG ...etc
I need to find records that does not have this list of strings in, so for example DBML BUT sometimes I can have the string MEALDBML, or more concatenated. So this is a known string of MEAL and unknown string of DBML. I would then want to see that record. I do not know the unknown strings up front, so its a case of feeding in the strings I know are ok, and finding one that are outside that list. I was also thinking of regex?

What I need to do is find a string that can be any value, and is placed between ">" and "</" with a minimun length of 5 and a maximum length of 7 and contains exactly 2 dots.
So if I have a text file like this:
<a href="www.site.com">a site</a>
text<br />
More test<br />

I want it to find only the 5.0.77. And no, the number isn't always between h2 tags, and the number isn't even always the same. The only thing that is static about it is that is is between ">" and "</" and that it is between 5 and 7 characters and contains 2 dots.
When it comes to storing SQL in code, most people use strings:Dim strSql As String = "Select Foo, Bar From FooBarTable Where Something = @Something"The problem is, when you have very long SQL strings, reading them in code becomes difficult. You can usually split the strings up like this:
Dim strSql As String = "Select Foo, Bar From FooBarTable " & _
"Where Something = @Something"
This causes a number of problems:

I used the unicode character manipultation features in my code under VB.NET 2003. Will the code still work on Unicode characters that have been added to the Unicode standard since 2003? I am aware that there have been some characters added to the Unicode standard for Persian text since 2004.
