Regex - Mass Search And Replace With Wildcards Or Reg Expression MyString.Length To Len(MyString)

Oct 14, 2010

I have a large ASP.NET project where I want to do a mass search and replace (about 3500 instances)

I want to change

If strErrorMessage.Length > 0
If strSomeString.Length > 0
If strWhatever.Length > 0

and any other similar call to the Length method from a string to the following

If Len(strErrorMessage) > 0
If Len(strSomeString) > 0
If Len(strWhatever) > 0

Anyway to reliably do this in one shot?

I can do a search and replace for something like If *.Length > 0 --> If Len(*) > 0

This just won't work though as it won't understand how to rearrange it properly. Currently have VS2010 and N++ at my disposal.

Sep 18, 2009

If CompLang.Text = "ru***" Then
CompLang2.Text = "working"

This is just a simple example. I'm trying to make it so that if one x.text = ru*** (for instance, ru---, or ruuuu, or rux2x, etc.) to have x.text change to a predetermined value (hardcoded).

Use SQL Queries With LIKE, @parameters, And % Wildcards?

Feb 22, 2012

I am using a database in Visual Basic 2010 displayed through a DataGridView. Through the DataGridView's "add query" option, I am writing these queries. My goal is to have partial search entries show up (ie if the entry is "Lewis" then it should be among the entries returned if "Le" is in the textbox.)

SELECT * FROM Table WHERE Surname LIKE '%' + @Surname + '%'

I am using the above query and it only returns exact matches despite the LIKE operator. Partial entries never show up despite the presence of the wildcard % symbol. It's as if the whole thing is being treated as an equal sign.What should I do? Is it a problem with the SQL itself or does VB's "add query" maker simply have such limited capabilities?

Using Wildcards Or Specifying Multiple Objects?

Nov 15, 2011

i have a bunch of radio buttons which can have different text displayed depending on whats retrieved from the database.however i want to add code that hides any radio button that would have a 'zero' retrieved from the database.so far this is the code i was coming up with, without getting into the nitty gritty of the actual database queries

If RadioButton1.Text = Me.HWExamsDataSet.DSExamTextA.Rows.Item.tostring = 0 Then
RadioButton1.Visible = False
End Ifabase entries or queries.

it looks like it may work...but is there a way to automate it so that i can put in a reference to ANY radiobutton like radiobutton(*).text? or a bunch of buttons if need be.i know theres a way to specify additional items to a given command...just can't remember if its curly brakets etc.

Finding Single File Using Wildcards?

Mar 3, 2012

I'm using Visual Basic Professional 2010, I have two directories of XML files. The naming convention in directory one is a user's name, a six digit date and ending in ".xml_CREATE.xml". So, I perform some work on a file in directory two. During the course of that processing I discover that a file exists in directory one called "Mike" an unknown six digit date and ending with ".xml_CREATE.xml", so while I have no way to know the date, I know it exists and would look something like Mike030312.xml_CREATE.xml. So, now I want to load that file as an XElement that I will eventually incorporate into an XDocument, so I need to perform a Load similar to:
myXMLFile = XElement.Load(My.Settings.XMLDir & "" & Mike030312.xml_CREATE.xml),
However, since I don't know the date, I need to insert wildcards at that spot. How do I make that happen?

VS 2008 MS Access Search

Jul 22, 2011

I've been trying to make a little program that connects with an access database (2000). So far I've got a bindingnavigator that I can use to go through each record one by one, but now I'm trying to add a search button and I'm failing pretty bad with that.I'm wondering if anyone can help me out with how I could have something where the search button will take the name that the user searched for, and then find the corresponding record ID number - and then set the bindingnavigator to that record.I have managed to do something that searches and shows a record from ms access db before, I just am using the bindingnavigator for the first time and have no clue how I can set it to different positions.
