Gateway Address - Trim String To Certain Character

Jul 17, 2011

I have a DGV and a button to open a browser window to an ip address and also a button to open the ip address gateway. I can open the ip address that is displayed in the DGV no problem. What I am stuck on is opening the gateway address. So for example I click a record in DGV then the button and my browser opens to 10.15.2.248 What I need to do is replace 248 with 1 The ips will all end differently though for example 10.20.2.34 , 10.256.34.4 and so on. So as far as I know I will have to trim to the last period and add a 1 How can I do this?

VS 2008 Random - New Character Out Of The String And Then Remove The Character From The List Of Characters

Dec 12, 2010

[Code]...

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.

Can't Seem To Use String.Trim()

Jul 12, 2010

I'm working with this new API that returns some XML. The problem is that the developer has chosen to indent his returned XML and it's driving me nuts. So, I thought I'd just trim it and then use it that way. But it's not working. here is what I'm getting back from the API:

<response>
<result>success</result>
<session_guid>33434343556</session_guid>
</response>

The code, of course, comes back in a StreamReader object called reader. So my plan is to write the UNTABBED XML to a text file. I thought this would work:

dim output as String = reader.ReadToEnd()
dim xml as String

'open the file in a try/catch statment. Won't include that here

....
....

'Now, we're going to remove whitespace using String.Trim() and write it to a file:

xml = output.Trim()

Then I close the file and move on. The problem is that the String.Trim command isn't working! When I open the file, the indentations ARE STILL THERE and it's throwing everything off.

VS 2008 : Splitting A String Using A Character?

May 29, 2011

In a rich text box I have a lot of lines of text, all of them have the same pattern:

12345 - Something here - something else here
65474534 - stuff here - random crap here

The number of words/numbers varies from line to line. What I'm trying to do is remove the third part, so the result would be:

12345 - Something here
65474534 - stuff here

I've tried using many variations of Split(), but since the number of words varies it doesn't always split it correctly. Also It doesn't seem to go down the lines of my rich text box, and it just sticks with the first like?

Compare A String And Trim?

Apr 9, 2010

I have this string that shall come in from another file. The string has maximum length of 102 digits. I need to compare the string with numbers in a pair and delete those from that string.

e.g - 6125223659587412563265... till 102

numbers that compare with this string-

first set - 61

new string = 25223659587412563265

second set - 36

new string = 252259587412563265

and so on. the set of numbers shall go to maximum of 51 pairs = 102, which shall give an end result of string = "" How can i achieve this in a loop?

this is not answer, this is editing the question. i dont know why but the edit button just vaniashed so i have to edit question here. No duplicates will ever be in this string. and in the end when compares are done, i want to see what numbers are left in pairs.

I'm working in Microsoft Access attempting to concatanate the results of a query into a single string.

VS 2010 Doesn't Trim Get Rid Of Null Bytes In String?

Jun 17, 2010

I'm receiving a byte array from a network device by using the TcpClient class and as I have no idea how much data will be being sent I have to just declare a buffer that is X number of bytes long and keep reading into that until I've got all of the data. I then convert this byte array to a string using Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString but the problem is that this gets any null bytes that were at the end of the buffer after the string and it includes them in the string. This then means when I do String.EndsWith it doesnt work as I would expect it to because there are just loads of 0 bytes at the end of the string.

Once I had realised that was what was happening (which took a long time as these null bytes are completely invisible when you are looking at the data in String form) I thought fine I'll just use Trim on the string but I've found that this doesnt make any difference at all. I thought Trim was supposed to remove any blank space from the start/end of a string, which I assumed would include empty bytes as well.

So is there any alternative I can use that will trim the empty bytes off the end or do I have to do it the 'manual' way and loop through my byte array before converting it to string and remove any null bytes? One thing that has just popped into my head as I'm typing this is to try using the Chr method and pass it 0 and combine that with Trim like so:
