Is it possible to get character character code in Visual Basic 2008 and to get character from character code ( Without form1_keyDown or KeyUp)?.
What i need is two functions, first to get character code of a character, and second to get character from character code.
I have a value I am pulling into a string that looks like this:
M'arta
I need to have it to translate the numeric value into an actual value so that the string looks like this:
M'arta
how to accomplish this in VB.NET? Here is the relevant line of code that returns this result:
Dim occupant as String = GridView1.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(2).Text
I'm able to convert a character to its corresponding Character/ASCII code using "Asc(CHAR)". I can't find anything on converting this returned Integer back to its original Char form.

View 4 RepliesThis might be a really easy one but I couldn't seem to find an answer anywhere I'm trying to comment my code as follows
Session("test") = "JAMIE" _
'TEST INFO
& "TEST" _
'ADDRESS INFO
& "ADDRESS = TEST"
With the code above i'm getting the error Syntax error But when I remove the comments like so
Session("test") = "JAMIE" _
& "TEST" _
& "ADDRESS = TEST"
It works fine so my guess is that I cannot comment my code between the _ character.

I have tried a Replace(text, Chr(196), Chr(45)) but it isn't working so it can't be 196. Is there a tool or something where I can copy this character and paste it into the tool and it will tell me what char code it is?

View 2 RepliesI am working on a client/server based application and I have run into quite a few snags stumbling my way through I have resolved quite a few issues, and need help with something new. I am using a TCPIP client/server and I find that at the end of each loop when I am reading the data from the network stream it appends a character to the end. I have tried removing the last character but I am not sure if it is getting the whole character successfully because I still get lots of different errors both in binary and xml deserialization whcih I think is related to this. Does anyone know the ascii code for the termination character for TCPServer/Client communications?

View 3 RepliesI am working on a sub that essentially needs to open a text file, and replace all instances of a certain character with a unicode character. I'm trying to do this by reading the original text file byte by byte, converting it to a character, and then either adding that character to a memory stream or writing the unicode character to the memory stream. Then I'm saving the memory stream to the original file.

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 writing a hangman type game and I am displaying the word to the user in a label as all *'s, but I cannot figure out how to have just one of the *'s changed in the label to the correct letter when the user inputs the correct letter into the text box and clicks the check letter button.Everything else in the program works perfectly, except for this part.[code]When I use the .Replace it changes all of the *'s to the correct selected letter.

View 7 RepliesIn my VB.NET application I compare words that are recorded using IPA, many of which have many diacritic marks. In one of the comparisons, I compare the words character by character. But when I iterate over the characters, the diacritic marks come out as separate characters (as I would expect since this is unicode)However, a u character is different than a u plus an accent for the purposes of this program and needs to be distinguished.
