I am trying to validate a textbox by checking the ASCII values on PreviewKeyDown event of the textbox.This method woorked fine with WinForms using vb.NET.The problem comes wen I use it in WPF.Is there a better method of carrying out validation of textbox in WPF forms ??

i'm new to this site and i'm hoping there's someone out there that can help me with this problem. I'm doing a course in visual basic 2010 and having real trouble understanding some aspects of it. Here goes -
I need to do a validation check on a users inputed string. The users input is called Test_data and it needs to be exactly 10 characters long and must only use the letters " a " to " f "
I know to check that the string is exactly 10 characters long by the Len function, and i have that working.BUT - how do i check whether the users inputed string uses the letters a to f ? I thought it would involve something to do with ASCII, but i would have no idea how to form a validation check using ASCII.
I am using Microsoft.VisualBasic.Fileio.TextFieldParser to parse a CSV file that was created with Excel 2003. The parser is working great with the exception that it is converting extended ascii values to question marks! So if the file content was:
± 3
The TextFieldParser is returning
? 3
I have tried all of the encodings in the System.Text.Encoding package with no luck. I thought I had it with UTF7 but it was dropping other characters like replacing the + sign with a space.
I'm working on decoding a NMEA sentence that is a compressed 8-bit string. I'm having a very hard time of wrapping my head around the bit manipulation needed to convert this string. If someone could get me started with this it would be great.
Here is the incomming string:
!AIVDM,1,1,,A,14eG;o@034o8sd<L9i:a;WF>062D,0*7D
and here is the expected output:

I would like to pass a whitespace character by using the System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(" "), and System.Text.Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(" ") , where " " is the whitespace Character required. What do I need to type (" ") to get a whitespace character passed.?
View 6 RepliesSo I have an ASP.Net (vb.net) application. It has a textbox and the user is pasting text from Microsoft Word into it. So things like the long dash (charcode 150) are coming through as input. Other examples would be the smart quotes or accented characters. In my app I'm encoding them in xml and passing that to the database as an xml parameter to a sql stored procedure. It gets inserted in the database just as the user entered it.
The problem is the app that reads this data doesn't like these characters. So I need to translate them into the lower ascii (7bit I think) character set. How do I do that? How do I determine what encoding they are in so I can do something like the following. And would just requesting the ASCII equivalent translate them intelligently or do I have to write some code for that?
Also maybe it might be easier to solve this problem in the web page to begin with. When you copy the selection of characters from Word it puts several formats in the clipboard. The straight text one is the one I want. Is there a way to have the html textbox get that text when the user pastes into it? Do I have to set the encoding of the web page somehow?

The below lines does not write anything to the file, ascii.txt. Trying to write the ascii equivalent of hex "88". However nothing is written to the file, nor nothing is asssigned to the variable, ascii.
Dim ascii = ChrW(Convert.ToInt32("88", 16))
My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText("e:ascii.txt", ascii, True)
In excel or openoffice, you can get the ascii equivalent using the below formula. What is wrong with the code?
=CHAR(HEX2DEC("88"))
Here's my code and the result, as much as I know, is in ASCII:
Private Sub Form_Load()
With MSComm1
.CommPort = 1
If .PortOpen = False Then

I need the data to be in Hex
my name is Altair da Silva and I'm writing a Jeopardy game. I have most of the program done. I got stuck at one part. I have been trying to create lines of codes that would result in a buzzer. This buzzer has to work right after the msgbox with the answer comes up. I'm using a clickhandler and i would like to have this code under the clickhandler. I have tried almost everything. I know that there is a way of doing it, but i dont know how.
View 1 RepliesThis has been driving me crazy for two weeks! I just started learning Vb.net, so please forgive me if I make rookie mistakes. Basically, I would like to convert any type of file to Ascii code. An mp3, .wav, .avi etc. The most I was able to do is convert only the first character of the file to Ascii. Also, I'm not sure what would be the fastest method to do this. SteamReader, FileStream, or BinaryReader. Can anyone explain what method would be best? This is what I have so far:

View 14 Replieshow i can convert from Hexadecimal to Ascii ? like this ez : a hex text "6d 65 68 64 69 33" will became a ascii "mehdi3"
View 2 RepliesI'm testing a "simple" login program: it has predetermined ID and Password, after input is correct then you can change the ID and Password. It saves a Non-Encrypted file that has the new ID and Password. Then after the program loads (when it is opened again) it reads the file to retreive the ID and Password, but when it reads, it reads it in 32-bit code, I need it in Ascii (with alphabetical representation) so that I can compare it to the input.I also get an error stating the length cannot be a negative (right after my comment).

i thought it was the for loop problem...since i will go up to 7 while len(hexnum) is 8 so it would loop again but there is nothing after 8th HEX?so i tried For i = 1 To Len(hexnum)-1 Step 2 ...this time...textbox didnt show anything...+ the same error came up...
How to convert byte array to ASCII in VB.NET System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.Getstring(y) it gives the data like 52414D41 . but i need "RAMA" instead of 52414D41.

I am looking for a function in vb.net which will convert a hex value to the corresponding ascii, like in excel.For example, in excel,

I read parameters from my ECU thru RS232 and display them on TextBox. But the display is ASCII instead of itself. E.g. I read 0x01 and store it in DataReceived, and set
Dim DataRecevied As Byte
TextBox1.Text = DataReceived
The value appeared in TextBox1 is 49 (0x31), which is ASCII of 0x01. How to display 01 there?
I am having a bit of trouble converting a single stored in a string as four hex values. I believe my problem stems from some Unicode hex values not matching the corresponding ASCII hex value above 0x7F (127). For example, I have the following single stored in a string; "518.42" or 0x44019AE1. The char that would contain 0x9A if the data type were ASCII contains U+0161 which will not convert properly to a byte array. My question is: Is there any way to force a string to be of ASCII rather than Unicode? Or maybe there are other recommendations? For reference I have tried both of the following. The first throws a format exception and the second converts to the wrong single.
Private Function ConvertHexToSingle(ByVal hexValue As String) As Single
Try
Dim iInputIndex As Integer = 0
Dim iOutputIndex As Integer = 0

I need to get ASCII Values into an array that I have setup. The code is written as follows:
Dim aStr As String = TextBox1.Text
Dim aStrBytes() As Byte = New Byte() {}
aStrBytes = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(aStr)
ReDim IntialValue(0 To 1000)
I've tried searching for this, but most people just want to convert hex values into their ASCII equivalents. That's not what I am looking to do.I'm looking to see if VB.NET has a simple built-in function to do this:
Private Function NibbleToString(ByVal Nibble As Byte) As String
Dim retval As String = String.Empty
Select Case Nibble[code]....
Is there a more elegant way to accomplish the same thing as that code?
