I'm working on an application that will look through an XML file and match strings. However, some of the text in the XML that I'm searching is Cut with an *. I'm trying to search through model numbers, and say I'm searching "RGI6400GB", and the entry in the XML is "RGI6*". Is there any way to search if there's an * in the text and have it able to search like that? Some also have the ending of the model, like so; "*GB".

View 3 RepliesI 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?

View 4 RepliesI am trying to perform an action if the index of a string contains a certain value, but it's just not working quite right and I could use a hint if anyone has done this before.The application pulls in a .txt file and manipulates it to create 3 other different type of files. It is currently set to pull the information from line 3, but the output program that supplies the file will probably change to line 2 or 3. I need to either search the whole string or the index of line 2 and 3 and then do the following manipulations. It will not return the value of line 2. This is what I have tried, but is not working. The code commented out at the bottom is what is currently there.
The .txt file shows the following values so far:

I have been searching all morning for a sample showing a simple "find" example for an ASP.NET Webform, where a "find" button is used to find a string in a Textbox, and then Highlight it, like Word does. The following VB6 code worked perfectly, but I couldn't find .Selstart or .SelLength properties in the Text property of the ASP.NET textbox.
'find the first instance
Private Sub Command14_Click()
Command36.Visible = True
[Code]...
Is there a way to Select the Length and Start of the string in ASP.NET. The Winforms code is very similar to the VB6 code, so maybe I'm just missing something simple.
'this calls the connection sub
connection()
SQL = "SELECT * FROM Customers WHERE Surname Like '" & Textbox1.Text & "%'"
'this calls the DatagridFill sub
Datagridfill()
This is my current code, it searches for anything entered into the textbox against the row "surname", but I also have a first name row and a Order ID row. Instead of searching against one row, i want to to search all the rows, and fill the datagrid with anything it matches it with.
i'm doing Advance search in my applications(vb.net,MS-Access) ,the results display form is quite heavy so i thought before loding the form i want to show some search icon
View 10 RepliesHi, I have a project that works with a database. It groups al my films per category. I use this code to group everything by category. The categories are chosen in the combobox cboCateogorie.
Private Sub cboCategorie_SelectedIndexChanged_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cboCategorie.SelectedIndexChanged
If Not cboCategorie.SelectedValue Is Nothing Then
cboCategorie.DataBindings.Clear()
cboCategorie.DataBindings.Add(New Binding("Text", objDtsMuziekcollectie.tblCategorieen, "CategorieID"))
Dim dtvDVDInhoud As DataView
dtvDVDInhoud = objDtsMuziekcollectie.tblDVDInhoud.DefaultView
dtvDVDInhoud.RowFilter = "CategorieID = " & cboCategorie.SelectedValue.ToString
dtvDVDInhoud.Sort = "DvdID ASC"
objTblDVDInhoudBindingSource.DataSource = dtvDVDInhoud
Me.objTblDVDInhoudBindingSource.MoveFirst()
End If
End Sub
Now I've made a textbox and a button which I can search with. But I want that my category in the combobox changes when a film is selected with that search. Now I already have this code to search with a joker sign.

objTblDVDInhoudBindingSource.DataSource = dtvZoeken
dtvZoeken.RowFilter = "Titel like '" & txtZoekveld.Text & "*'"
End Sub
Ok, so what I want is the opposite off what I do when I select a category in a combobox. Now I actually select a film and this film also has an ID, namely DvdID and with that I want that the combobox shows the category where the film belongs to.

Recently I have started my computing course at college. I had little programming knowledge (as I'm more of a 'web developer') and it has come to the point of us learning some of the basics.I downloaded VB at home, and have been learning by myself when I have the chance... but I've hit a wall Basically, I have to create a program that searches for a character within a string.I managed to do this at college, but it has slipped my mind... So I could use some help The specification we have to meet is:An event (such as a button being clicked) must use a function to return something.The function must use the mid() function
From this, I've come up with:
Public Class Form1
Dim string1, searchterm As String
[code].....
The layout of my program is effectively 2 text boxes (named input1 & searchterm), a Label (named Output1) and a button (named search).ow, My problem (I think) is due to the mid().I'm not entirely sure I've used it correctly.
