The last charaters can range from 1 to 100 This is the code that i am using to remove unwanted characters which is working how i want it to do but when i pass each file to OrigName to get the original name
i am getting the above and i can not see where the '_1' are getting added. I don't want to mess too much with it incase it stops working the way i need it too. The lines in bold are the ones that write the results to a .tmp text, see below.

I have a form with four checkboxs and a textbox for an id number.I also have two tables in a database. The first has a column for the users Id, Name, and a column called Points.The second has a column for Id and one called Letters.What i want to do is, after the user enters the id number, and the user clicks checkboxA it should add a certain number, lets say 5, to the "points" cell for that id#(in the first database), and it should put the letter "a" in the "letters" column (of the second database) for that id number. Also, if a user deselects a checkbox it should remove the "a" from letters and subtract 5 from points.Also there will be different letters in the "letters" cell, so i cant just clear it, but i have to remove the specific letter.

For each character of this string I want a new character out of the string and then remove the character from the list of characters that still maybe used for other characters. It may not get the same character, you could basically just call this encryption, but it's not what I am making. I don't want to waste my time doing this one hour while VB can do this for me in <1 second.

I am retrieving string values from a table and then encode each term to make a httpwebrequest to an api. It works fine and the terms allow for foreign characters like japanese/arabic/chinese etc and these are inserted fine. The problem occurs when some of these terms contain weird characters and that is when the request is bad. The only reason it is bad xml and the template I follow gets invalid are when these characters are present. I use the
system.securityelement.escape
And also
httputility.htmlencode
As part of my cleanup. One of the weird characters ends up appearing as a space but it is not since the trim(term) does not work and when I look at the xml in visual studio it looks like an ' &' with arrow pointing up attached to it. It does not appear after I pasted it here.It appears as a line feed or carriage return and I have tried to remove that too. Anyway is there some way I can ensure that these sort of characters are removed and if I were to use the binary values like <32 invalid, will foreign characters then get excluded.
temp = temp.replace(vbCr, "")
temp = temp.replace(vbLf, "")
temp = SecurityElement.Escape(temp)

I made a batch script using VB.NET which deletes shortcut on my desktop. The problem is that shortcut title contains unicode characters so batch doesn't work. However if I remove that unicode character from the shortcut and batch script it does delete the shortcut. How can I make it delete the shortcut w/o removing that unicode character?
tempstring = "@echo off"
tempstring = tempstring & vbCrLf & "del " & Chr(34) & My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.Desktop & "My shortcut™ 1.lnk" & Chr(34)
tempstring = tempstring & vbCrLf & "del %0"

bytes ( 00 00 00 ) I'm trying to remove from a specific set of locations within a byte stream. The following code is what I'm using. I tried using the Trim function as listed in the code at the bottom but that had no effect. I'm extracting from a fixed byte range and there are null values after the end of valid ascii characters. Dim temp() As Byte = GetByteArray(FrameData, 3, 32)
Private Function GetByteArray(ByVal MyArray As System.Array, ByVal Start As Integer, ByVal Length As Integer) As Byte()

I'm currently building a Terminal Emulator and can read RS232 data ok into a Textbox.
However, I want to remove a set number of characters before each line received.
I've got so far with StringBuilder but my code is wrong somewhere as it cuts out every other line.
The original text looks like this:W 320:15:25 0300 SAMPLE FLOW WARN
T 320:15:25 0300 CO= 4.6 PPM
T 320:15:25 0300 RANGE=50 PPM

T 320:15:25 0300 CO MEAS=4012.0 MV

I have a notify icon and I use the 'Text' property instead of 'BallonTipText' because I just like it better and it fits well with my application. The only thing wrong with that is the 64 character limit. How can I determine the length of a string, remove all characters after the 61st character, then add three periods at the end of the new string? I've looked around and can't find any solution to removing all characters after the first X characters.
