I have been trying to figure out how to read paragraph content which exists a heading. The heading itself is part of the table of contents. The heading will have a particular style (say Heading 1). For example: "Introduction" is a entry in Table of content with style Heading 1. I want to read content under heading "Introduction" but not any more content (i.e not content under sub headings of Introduction) I have been trying to do this using styles/style, TableofContent, Paragraphs/Paragraph,Range. Still cannot come up with a effective solution. I am working in VB.NET in VS 2010. I am using the word 2007 object model (office 2007 interop) as [URL]
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to write a function to find a word in a string in the this format : "ThisissometextthatIneedtofindandthisisthetext. This is another text."It's read as " This is some text that I need to find and this is the text. This is another text." but there is no space between each word. I want to get the word "text" or any word in that string. Can you help me with this function with a code sample ?
And I think that this method can be implemented with a string of Unicode also because in a sentence of Unicode it contains one or few, sometimes zero spaces between each word.
I have a string and I want to see if inside that string I have the word Peter.

This does not work, It still says Yes when I have Not in the textbox. How can I do this correctly?
Is there any function or collection in VB.NET that checks if a string is a word? Like a dictionary?I'm making a random word generator, and I can get it to generate random strings, but it's be better if they were actual English words..I know something like System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary would work, but wouldn't you first have to add all of the words into the Dictionary?I guess what I'm looking for is a Collections.Generic.Dictionary with English words preloaded into it?

i have a webrowser and i need to find about 10 links all begining with [URL], from the html code of that site. The websites in the code wont be clickable, they are usually listed on a forum. The end of the link above can be diferent, so im not sure how you could find the end point. No assumptions can be made as to the code that will be after the link, as every website is different. The link then needs to listed in a listbox for further processing.

View 3 RepliesMy program so far reads a certain webpage's source code and places it in a textbox. This much has already been accomplished.
Now I need to pick certain strings out of the rather large amount of text data and have the lines stored in variables, but the trick of it is, the exact string is unknown. The exact function should be, that the code finds certain tags from the source code, say <td> and </td> and takes the string data in between those tags, what ever it may be.
how can i read from a .doc or .docx file using vb6.And store values into string variables.
View 2 RepliesHere's some information on how you'd read it. First, you'd read in the file, where inFilename is the path to your text file, using FileStream to access the file, and StreamReader to read the data from the text file:
[Code]...
Next, you'd read the data from the text file into a string array, splitting the array on each new line character. (Each line in the text file is a new member of the array)
[Code]...
Now that you're done reading in the text file, you can close the streamreader and filestream so that the text file isn't still using resources or holding any type of lock(s) on the file

How I am making it work, is the software starts with a list of EVERY word. And when you spellcheck, it checks to see if the word you typed in matches any word in the list of every word (dictionary). And if not, it's misspelled. If so, then it's all coo'.The problem with this, is that I can only spellcheck one word at a time.So, I was thinking of somehow reading a sentence by words. Taking each word in order and putting them into a string. Then checking each word. My software is a learning software. I have a website that is meant to teach you computer programming. And one of the courses is Visual Basic (.NET).Visual Basic seems to be a popular programming course in High Schools so I decided that it would be a great language to add.
View 4 RepliesI am trying to create a function that searches each line of a richtextbox and returns that row if one of many search phrases are found.The app works wonderfully when used with longer words or muli word phrases as the search criteria.The problem I have is if the search word/ criteria contains a small string such as bae or sp then I get alot of false positives. Anytime bae or sp is found within any word it returns the results.I need the function to stop looking within the words for results and instead look at the word as a whole for a match.Below you can see that I am taking each line of text in the richtextbox, removing most non-alpha numberic characters and replacing them with spaces.Then I have it remove any double spaces with single spaces.For the search term list I have it take the text before the delimiter;and do the same.Trouble I am having is,if the search term is SP and the search phrase is "This is a space shuttle lauch"it will return the sentence since the sentence contains the word "space" which starts with sp.[code]
View 8 RepliesProblem: Your task is to take input from the user in string and give the following options to the user in a menu.
1- Find a String
2- Create sub-string
3- Erase a portion of a sting
4- Replace a word in the string
5- Count number of words and characters in the string without spaces.
6- Capitalize first character of each new sentence and convert the rest
of the characters to lower case.
7- Sort all the words in alphabetical order. (Use Bubble sort algorithm to perform sorting).
To perform all the above mentioned tasks you can only use pointers. Create a function to perform every task.
VS 2008 08/10 counting vowels in each word,longest/shortest word?
View 8 RepliesThe following code allows words to be added to a listbox. Add the word to a text file and create a folder with the word as its name. The second part undoes the actions.If I try to delete the word immediately after adding it one of two things happen.
1.An error is reported stating the path cannot be found. Although the listbox index value is correct according to the code the error is pointing at that index +1.
2.The code continues to the point of requesting conformation to delete the folder, still pointing at the index value +1. I the action is confirmed the wrong folder is deleted.
However if I stop debugging, then run the code again all works correctly.Is it likely to persist when the application is compiled?

I already try using a substring but I'm to confused how to set it can read every 2 word
I've got this problem where I'm supposed to be determining whether a string is a word or not. not exactly.Its supposed to just make sure each string has at least 1 vowel, and each vowel is surrounded by consonants. If it meets those requirements it'll be accepted, if not it'll be rejected, but I've already got that part figured out. I think I know a horrible way to do it, that would take a very long time, but I'm thinking there has to be a much easier way..

I am receiving data from other computer over tcp/ip and the received type is below...
"Info,Reply:Timestamp 75ff, SpecificID c07c343aInfo,Reply:Timestamp 76ff, SpecificID
c07c3089"
In the above string, i want to get only BOLD string value.
Sometime the data would be "Info,Reply:Timestamp 75ff, SpecificID c07c343a" and
sometimes it would be many repeated value like
"Info,Reply:Timestamp 75ff, SpecificID c07c343aInfo,Reply:Timestamp 76ff, SpecificID
c07c3089Info,Reply:Timestamp 75ff, SpecificID c07c345aInfo,Reply:Timestamp 76ff, SpecificID
c07c3088..."
Some people say I will be able to get them through regex.
But I don't know how to make regular expression for getting this value.

I am working on highlighting a word when entered in a textbox.
Example:
string = "hi this is <b>testing</b>"
When i enter the word "testing" in textbox and click on search then it is highlighting the word "testing". but when i enter "is testing" in textbox and click on search then it is not highlighting the word "is testing". this is due to there is bold tag for "testing".
How can we highlight the word which is in bold tag...
I have a string which contains words with parentheses. I need to remove the whole word from the string.
For example: for the input, "car wheels_(four) klaxon" the result should be, "car klaxon".
I'm currently trying to match a word in a string - to a word in an 1 dimensional arrray.
So it does this.
1.Goes into array, gets first word.
2.Looks for that word in the string.
3.If can't find it, go to next word in array.
4.And so forth until it finds it or runs out of words in array.
Problem is the string can be upto 2000 characters long. And the Array with the possible matches can have upto 8000 entries.
So when it runs, if the word begins with 'A' it finds it dead quick as the 'A's are at the top of the array, ordered alphabetically. This is great.
But if the word starts with 'Z' then it takes 4-5 seconds before finding it.
I'm basically using InStr to find the word in the string.

i need to replace the whole word from a string.
for example. String= "Hi VBFriends, I am learning VB 2010."
i need to replace only VB as C#.
if i put String.Replace, its changing as "Hi C#Friends,I am learning C# 2010."
i used regex, Word boundary but not worked, below my code.
Dim sHTMLStream As String = "Hi VBFriends, I am learning VB 2010."
Dim oColl As MatchCollection = Regex.Matches("sHTMLStream", "\bvb", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase)
For Each sTemp As Match In oColl
MessageBox.Show(sTemp.Value)
