how to convert system.string to char for label text?? Here it my
[Code].....
I need to get the strings from the site and input the fields strings in the label text, so I needs to convert char of system.string but i don't know how to fix it.
I have a string like this.
Dim str As String = "code"
I need to break this string down to an array of characters like this,
{"c", "o", "d", "e"}
How can I do this?
I've been trying to figure this out for hours now, and I've given up on trying to solve it myself. Basically what I need to do, is convert a "double octet" binary string, such as "11010011 01011101", into a byte or char type if possible.I use the following code to convert my Unicode text into binary:
Private Function ByteToStr(ByVal bt() As Byte) As String
Dim st As New StringBuilder
For Each byt As Byte In bt

But that gives me weird results. The "Convert.FromBase64String" obviously isn't what I'm after. Any help would be great. If I can convert the "binary string" into a bytes or chars I can get it into a string.

I'm saving the font of a label to a text file, and when I open the text file with my program, I want the label to have the same font that is listed within the text file. Now, the only problem I am having is that when I try to write the code for opening the text file, I can't set the font property of the label to a string. Label1.Font=[Font: Name=Microsoft Sans Serif, Size=9.75, Units=3, GdiCharSet=0, GdiVerticalFont= False]Here is what the code to open the text file and set the font of the label looks like:[code]The problem for the code happens at line 6. The error is: "Value of type 'String' cannot be converted to 'System.Drawing.Font'"ing each part of the font in the text file(i.e. Writing Font.Name and Font.Size properties in separate lines and then setting the label's font properties to each line accordingly), but I still get hit with the same error.

View 9 Replies[URL]..From the above link,i studied about the conversion.But i have a confusion:Whats the difference between the following two?CInt(myString) VB Only. This function converts the expression to an integer. A run-time exception is generated if the conversion fails.
Convert.ToInt32(myString) This function converts the expression to an integer. A run-time exception is generated if the conversion fails.
When should i use the first one and when to use the second one?
I have a form which accepts the time ( start time and end time)in a text box. What i want to do is to convert it into time and get the difference of it. I googled it and found lot of question regarding converting to date and time. but i only need "time" and dont want date.

Basically, what this code is supposed to do is compare the text inputted in the input textbox with the text of the string answerstring. It seems to successfully compare the two, but every time I type the first char into the input textbox the program crashes, givingmythe Out of Range Exception. I assume it means the Char() "array" thats built into vb is out of bounds, however as i've set the while loop so that it only is executed when the whilecount is less than both the length of the input textbox and the answerstring, I don't see how it could be out of bounds.

I working with some EBCDIC data that I need to parse and find some Hex values. The problem that I'm having is that it appears that I'm reading the file in with the incorrect encoding. I can see that my record begins with "!" (which is a x5A in EBCDIC) but when doing the conversion to hex it returns as a x21, which is the ASCII value for a "!".
I was hoping that there was a built-in method in the framework, but I'm afraid that I'm going to have to create a custom class to correctly map the EBCDIC character set.

I have built a DataTable from my database. Then I am looping through the rows and trying to access a string, however the value is being returned as each character in the string.

The Trap_Code values are two or three letter strings, the returned value is each letter once at a time. The loop seems to cycle through the individual characters of the string as an array rather than display the entire value, which is what I was hoping for.

what is the best way to remove FileFinder1 from this string:
"C:Program FilesFileFinder1"
Basically the first letter of a string must be a certain letter. At the moment the only way I know how to do it is as follows:
If sConsignmentNo(0) = "J" Or sConsignmentNo(0) = "C" Or sConsignmentNo(0) = "U" Or sConsignmentNo(0) = "N" Or sConsignmentNo(0) = "H" Or sConsignmentNo(0) = "S" Or sConsignmentNo(0) = "V" Then
Basically listening the same thing out over and over. Is there a way I can say, If sConsignmentNo(0) = ListOfValidEntries i.e J,C,U,N etc?
