In VB6 if you do this,
keyStr = Left$(baseKey + encPassword, 56)
the string will be 56 characters even if it means appending whitespaces to the end.
in VB.NET
keyStr = Left$(baseKey + encPassword, 56)
will not necessarily be 56 characters. How can I force it to append whitespaces at the end if the baseKey + encPassword is less than 56 characters long?
I have a project which has a table with a list of stores. Originally the store code was a string of 3 and was padded so 1 would be 001 etc. I have had to increase this column to 8. The problem is when I read in data from a XML file the store code is padded so it looks like this '500 ' rather than '500'. This is now causing a major problem when I do a comparison.Is there a way to it does not auto pad to the full string length?

If using the following in an if statement I get an error: If trg.Name.Substring(4, 6).ToUpper <> ("ABCDEF") Then I get the error: "Index and length must refer to a location within the string. Parameter name: length"
I assume this is because the string (trg.name) is too small for the 4, 6 substring. What would be the correct method of working around this problem? VB.net Studio 2008.

I am having a bit of trouble converting a single stored in a string as four hex values. I believe my problem stems from some Unicode hex values not matching the corresponding ASCII hex value above 0x7F (127). For example, I have the following single stored in a string; "518.42" or 0x44019AE1. The char that would contain 0x9A if the data type were ASCII contains U+0161 which will not convert properly to a byte array. My question is: Is there any way to force a string to be of ASCII rather than Unicode? Or maybe there are other recommendations? For reference I have tried both of the following. The first throws a format exception and the second converts to the wrong single.
Private Function ConvertHexToSingle(ByVal hexValue As String) As Single
Try
Dim iInputIndex As Integer = 0
Dim iOutputIndex As Integer = 0

I'm writing some code that takes a report from the mainframe and converts it to a spreadsheet. They can't edit the code on the MF to give me a delimited file, so I'm stuck dealing with it as fixed width. It's working okay now, but I need to get it more stable before I release it for testing. My problem is that in any given line of data, say it could have three columns of numbers, each five chars wide at positions 10, 16, and 22. If on this one particular row, there's no data for the last two cols, it won't be padded with spaces; rather, the length of the string will be only 14. So, I can't just blindly have

I've tried searching and haven't found much useful information on this, I know it has to be possible, but I'm not sure how. I've got an application that bi-directionally syncs with an SQL express 2008 server. right now, I've got a hardcoded sa user in my conection string, however one feature that was asked for was to audit every change made by end users into the database. To implement this, I've created a user login and password for each user that is going to use my app (8 of them) on my sql server, however I now need to change the connection string to include each users name in the string. This is what I've got setup so far:

I have a vb.net app that I create an excel file with from sql data. It creates it fine but for cells that have a social security number, it makes that cell numeric and removes the leading zeros.

View 1 RepliesHow can I find out the length of particular row of array?
Label1.Text = array.Length
This shows the length of whole array.
e.g. 30
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
I would like to get the length of 0 row.
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
I have a problem when debugging a code. On top of class I declare an array, and the length of array is an integer variable which is applied value below declaration of array.
E.g. class declaration
Dim array1 (2, integer) as string
Public Sub
integer = 5
End Sub
So basically, array is created with integer being 0 or whatever, because it is declared before integer was assigned a value. But the problem is, I need it to be declared at class variable so I can use array in different subs.
How can I count the length of a string and also how many special characters are in the strings.
For instance if I have this string: $how*
How can I count that string is 5 chars long and that there are 2 special characters in the string. (special characters are the $ and

I've created some classes that will be used to provide data to stored procedures in my database. The varchar parameters in the stored procs have length specifications (e.g. varchar(6) and I'd like to validate the length of all string properties before passing them on to the stored procedures.
Is there a simple, declarative way to do this?

This seems like a lot of work and will really make my currently-simple classes look pretty ugly, but I suppose it will get the job done. It will also take a lot of copying and pasting to get this right.
I am working on a program that will take in a string of length 7 containing either R,G or B for the colours. The program will then check that the string if 7 in length and if it contains any other characters than R, G or B then it will be invalid.

I created a little test program for myself and placed three labels on it, each with the same font in a different size. I set the width of the label to 1024, the screenwidth. I used the same test text for each label, cutting it off at the last character that shows, so there is not hidden text running off the label to be included in the string width count.
What I have found is that the width of the string is being reported as wider than the label, even though, as I just mentioned, there are no characters running off the edge of the label. So, something's awry. Does anyone know how to get an accurate width?
Here follows the whole test code. You can drop three labels on a form and run it to see what I mean.
