A little background... I'm trying to build a spell checking form. I have this lovely library: [URL] and it seems to be working flawlessly.
The problem I have is trying to replace an entire word and only the first occurence of the word.
Example: Replace the first instance of "foo" with "bar" in the following string
"foo foo foobar" and get this "bar foo foobar"
I've been trying regular expressions with no luck. Here are the patterns I've tried compiling(these are obviously tied to variables in my program):
"(?<!foo)foo"
"(foo){1}"
I also tried the built in string.replace method with a count parameter, but I have no idea how I would make that match the entire word.

My app is a Reader for personal use. I have it setup By Books of the Bible and by Chapters and verses.
What I would like to be able to do, is to search for Pharaoh (any word) in a textbox, click the Search Button, and every occurrence of Pharaoh (not just the word, but the entire Verse: EX: Gen Ch7:14 Blah Blah Blah Pharaoh Blah Blah. Gen Ch9 :3 Blah Pharaoh Blah); to display inside a RTF or TextBox.

Im working on a program for my work and it is starting to get pretty in depth. Is there any way to replace just one occurence of a string. I tried this:
fileChanged = fileChanged.Remove(indexOfFeed, FeedLineBreak).Insert(indexOfFeed, NewFeed)

I need to find the first occurrence of a certain word's position in a textbox, on how to do this? Once I find out how I can get the position of the word i am searching for I can then pull the data I need from the textbox. I am using visual studio 2010 / visual basic.Since I have no clue where to start on this code, I will post what code i will be using to get rid of the data i don't need from the textbox.
Dim s As String = TextBox1.Text TextBox1.Text = (TextBox1.Text.Remove(450))i figure I can do this in a few steps to bring the searched info out of the textbox. I am open to other ideas on how to gather my data from the file or textbox. Here is what I have to do: Pull all of the players names from a replay file and put them in separate text boxes or even a listbox.

How can I replace character/word in text (loaded to richboxtext) but only for those which are not on the "block" list ?
Dim str As String = RichTextBox2.Text
RichTextBox3.Text = str.Replace("1"c, "A"c)
But I want add list of words which should be excluded. I thought that I can do something like :
Dim str As String = RichTextBox2.Text
If Regex.IsMatch(RichTextBox2.Text, "shows") Then
Else
RichTextBox3.Text = str.Replace("%"c, " "c)
End If
RichTextBox3.Text = str.Replace("1"c, "A"c)
Dim str2 As String = RichTextBox3.Text
RichTextBox3.Text = str2.Replace("2"c, "B"c)
But it's not working as it will just skip replace of % for whole text and I want just just exclude particular word from list from being replaced...

The 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?

make a program to replace the word followed by the selected. But I got stuck at the start..An Example:"My name is Dunley Mike and my father, Dunley Robin are on a holiday at the mountain. There they will meet the uncle Dunley Harry." So what I want to do is to loop through the text for the word Dunley (Underlined) and replace the First name (Bolded) (Mike, Robin, & Harry) to 'family'.

What you see here, is a code that picks everything written in between > and < markers from a source code on a website. What it returns is always a time stamp in between 00:00 and 23:59 and a string. Or almost always. There is a few instances where there are two times in a row and not every other, effectively breaking the system.Also, when this happens, the first time of the two has a "-" after it, i.e 18:00- What I've been trying to do, is making the program recognize when there is an extra character (the -), delete the extra character, and then jump over the next result in the search (the following time). This would completely resolve the problem.
The thing is, no matter how much I go through it in my head, I can't seem to think of a way to affect the NEXT result without screwing up the current result or all the following results. As you can see, my code is faulty. What it does now is an emergency method (as my teacher review of the code is coming up real soon) it jumps over the time with the extra character, and lists the following time. This however is not ultimately wanted, because in the bigger scheme of things, it displays the incorrect time for the incorrect string.
Search variable holds all the results of the regex search, for easier handling, and is used for checking for the extra character.Length6 variable is boolean for determining if the result had the "-" or not. The column ariable is to list the time and the string on the same line in the textbox.Jump is the variable that makes the code skip the conditioned result from the search.The counter variable, that might seem extra, is just for extra conditioning, its use is to prevent the first 337 instances of the search.

I have a long string that I'm retrieving from a file. I have a list in the database of different strings. I want to take my list and compare it to the strings from the file.

I have a bunch of object variables which are all initialised in their declarations such that:
Private _myObject As New ThisObject("SomeString")
where ThisObject is one of a number of object types, but all are initialised using a string.
I would like to use the Visual Studio Find/Replace dialog box to search for "As New" then replace everything from "As New" to the first set of speech marks with some text such that:

My original example could be solved using other methods. This example is more representative of the actual problem:
Private _myObjectA As New ThisObjectA("SomeString")
Private _myObjectLongName As New ThisObjectLongName("SomeString")

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)

I am trying to do this but it doesn't work:
VB
Dim str As String = "07" & GetBetween("Stephen 0761234567", "07", vbNewLine)Dim op As String = "lol" TextBox1.Text.Replace(str, op)
GetBetween is just a function to match something between something else. That works fine, the string (str) sets as 0761234567 just like I want but when i try to replace the text it doesn't work.

I have to find a string in a huge text file ( ~ 50MB) and then replace it.Since it's quite huge I tend to open the file and then read line by line, and then replace the necessary line(s) (rather than "readall" the file of course).My question is how to replace the whole line?Let's say I found the line that should be replaced . I know I can create a copy file and copy all lines into there ... but I'd prefer to replace the line in the original file rather than creating a copy instance.

Let's say I have an object that contains a Word property and a Sentence property. The sentence must use the word, and I want to replace the word in that sentence with a link using a public function (say, GetLinkedSentence). The catch is maybe the sentence uses a plural form of the word and maybe the "word" itself is actually a phrase, or is even hyphenated. There's no length limit to the word either. How do I find and replace this word (in ASP.NET, preferably VB) with a link [word])?
