I have a string of text being sent through a serial port to a text box (Text1.Text). The string has some symbols in in which I am assuming are Hex values. The hex values are Hex(1), Hex(4), Hex(12), and Hex(17). What I need to do is find the position of these hex symbols in the string of text so that I can split or grab the data after the specific hex symbol. I am not able to use substring or indexof or instr ... or at least I am not using it correctly to find the appropriate symbol.I was thinking if I need to iterate through the string character by character and grab each symbol or text and get their value??? If it is one of the hex symbols, then get the index number (or position).
I'm scanning through all characters in a textbox. Then the program counts how many of each character is in the textbox. Here's the code which adds all characters to a list:
For each c as char in TxtBox list.add(c) Next
Everything's working fine, except this will also add returns to the list, which I don't want. I thought I could write like this:
How can I count the amount of times a character appears in a string?
The assignment is to create a program with 2 text boxes, label, and a button. We then need to type a phrase into the first text box, and a character in the second. Then click the button and then the label will display the output of how many times the character in the second text box appears in the first.
I have all the above setup except for how to display the amount of times the character appears in the first text box, here's a picture:
I want to user to enter only numbers and characters in textbox i.e no special charaters.I don't want to use key press event of textbox.As i need same validation in gridview.
I am trying to count the number of times a specific character is in a string. The problem is when I run the program the letter doesn't advance from "d" in the string "debugging" and doesn't display the number of time the character "g" is found.
Private Sub Button2_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click Dim letterCount As Integer
I may have a string for example potato in a vb.net application. I want to find all the occurrences of o and convert them to 0, so the desired out is: p0tat0.I know it can be done by the provided string operations but I need a regular expression in my scenario.
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.
the coding is to 'Get input string and put its character into List, and replace the character with other.'but having problem putting each character into List and also replacing it,[code]
I've been working with the substring command and after coding up all the things I needed it to do, I saw a post on here where the "For Each" statement was used basically to do the same thing.Lets say we just want to take a string apart one character at a time and add each character to a label. Which would be more efficient?I made a cheap example to show ...
Code: ABinary = "0110 1100 0001 1011" For x = 0 To Len(ABinary) - 1
I am trying to develop a HANGMAN game and i need to implement a button where the user can click on it to "buy" letters. So, i designated 2 text boxes (one visible containing stars and another one not visible containing the word that should be guessed), and i wrote the following piece of code so that once the user presses the button any of the stars will turn to the correct letter. My question is, i found the index of "*" and removed it, and now i want to insert the corresponding char with this index (WordInLetters). How can i find what char is at index "index" in vb.net?
Private Sub picBuyLetters_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles picBuyLetters.Click Dim index As Integer = txtWordinStars.Text.IndexOf("*")
Is it possible that after you find a string, backup until you find a specific character and copy it?For example, I am looking for "bread". The text is milk8andbread. Would it be possible to start at bread, back up until eight, and just copy "andbread"?
i have a datagridview linked to a access DB that right now looks in the 5th column and counts the number of "c","o" (completed and open) but it gets the count from the entire data base. I am able to filter the ones for a certain day and view them on the grid but how to count the number of occurrences that are visible and not the ones that have been filtered out?
Assuming that I am going to add new record. I use this function to generate the ID for the new record.
Public Function GetMax(ByVal strTable As String, ByVal strField As String) As Integer Dim cmd1 As New SqlCommand Dim conn As New SqlConnection(gStrConnection) Dim no As Integer Dim str1 As String [Code] .....
It returns 1. How can I modify this to make it 20120001 wherein the first 4 number (2012) will depends on the year today.
My issue is that some websites only allow say 15 characters maximum to be used to create a user name where other sites do not. Currently I have one text box on the screen and a button, and a web browser that navigates to two sites.Site #1 has a cap of 15 characters max to create a user nameSite #2 doesn't have any maximum amount of characters to use.I am wanting to know how I can enter lets say a 20 character username into the text box and have the code set a max of 15 characters for site one and nothing for site 2. I was thinking that this could be done when passing the information from the text box to the text box on the screen with something like
Textbox1.Text.value.length= maximum 15 Site #2: Textbox1.Text
