I want to assign the value of the integer returned from the InStr method to a variable. So, If TextBox2.Text = "The Apple Pie" And TextBox1.Text = "App", I want the integer returned, which in this case would be 5, put into a variable, lets say its called 'VarString'.
So VarString (would) = 5.

Is it possible to use a string for string 2? cuz whenever i tried it would return a 0 instead of the position of the string. however when i hard code the string into the code it works
View 7 RepliesI have an application in VB.NET which gets string data from the database. This string has data which looks as below:
"This is the update: I have an issue with the application"
I need only part of the data, that comes after the new line i.e. "I have an issue with the application".
For this I am trying to search the position using InStr where the string has data in a new line. I tried many options, but they don't work.
I used "vbCrLf", Chr(13), "
", "
", "<br/>", Environment.NewLine, but none of them work.
How can I get the data I need?
other than GML (Yoyogames.com Game Maker Language), I am new to the coding world. The only "major" project I have completed using VB is a computer calculator that exactly mimics the capabilities of Windows 7's calculator. Yesterday, I began a Chatbot program for my girlfriend. Lol. I have used the instr() function to answer most of the questions or answers which are typed into the textbox1. I find this extremely troublesome because when using the instr() function you cannot say instr(textbox1.
Public Class Form1
Dim fos As String = "Foster: "
Dim ash As String = "Ashley: "

dim val1 As Integer? = If(5 > 2, Nothing, 43)' val1 = 0 dim val1 As Integer? = If(5 > 2, Nothing, Nothing)' val1 = Nothing What gives? Is this a bug, or am I overlooking something?
View 1 RepliesIf you assign a value to a nullable integer via a ternary operator, it can't become null..While this question may seem like a duplicate of many, it is actually being asked for a specific reason.Take this code, for example: Dim n As Integer? = If(True, Nothing, 1) In that code, the ternary expression should be returning Nothing, but it's setting n to 0. If this were C#, I could say default(int?) and it would work perfectly. Now it looks like I am going to have to ditch the ternary and use a regular If block, but I really want to use the ternary. If Nothing were truly VB.NET's equivalent to C#'s default, how can you explain this behavior?
View 1 Replies[URL] Using this I have managed to use Server Side Web Methods to perform actions with AJAX.In most instances, I just need it to do stuff (save things to a database for example) so don't need to do anything with the response, but now I've come across a situation where I do, and I can't work it out!The Web Method returns a JSON object, which looks like this:
{"d":"[{"validDetails":"True","lateAlert":"","LoginResponse":"Logging in Jamie at 16:53 please wait"}]"}
This is the output shown from Firebug. I am not sure what the 's are, but bear with it...The AJAX call and attempt at outputting this response is:
$("form").on("submit", function () {
var LogonObject = new Object;
LogonObject.password = $('#password').val();
[code]....
And several other variations from info I have found on Google and SO, but it seems to treat the results variable as a string, not an array, and the output I get on the alerts is each individual character, ie;
[, {, ", v, a, l, i, d, D... etc
So I wondered if results needed to be converted to JSON again (though I don't know why) so I tried
results = $.parseJSON(data.d)
But that didn't work either.
EDIT, the code which generates the response (missing out tons of logic, but this is the important bit):
Public Class OutputObject
Public validDetails, lateAlert, LoginResponse As String 'content of JSON output'
End Class

I have nine pictures that I need to animate -I need to use the ToString method and a counter to concatenate a file name into a string variable from the Image.FromFile method. Once the counter reaches its maximum value, and the last picture is displayed, the counter should be reset to zero or one depending on how the first image file has been name. Also a static counter variable should be incremented in the time routine. what I have so far -- I know what I have to do; however, I just do not know how to code this properly.. Right now I have this going thru a button procedure but it needs to go through a timer.

I am trying to assign integer values to the items in 2 different list boxes called lstWorkshop and lstLocation. I then want the equation, intCost = intDays * intLodgingFee + intRegistrationFee, to be executed and the result to be displayed in a third listbox named lstCost. This is what I have so far, but whenever I run the program the value that always gets displayed is 0, which is obviously not correct.

I have 52 image files, labelled from '_1' to '_52' in my resources folder, each number corresponds to a card.
My question is, how do I get a picture box to assign the correct resource according to a variable
So, say I have
"pictDealerCard1" -> picture box which displays the first of the dealers card
DealerCard1 = 37 -> random number generated through INT(RND() * 52)
and resource '_37'

I get nothing but headaches when I try to update settings in the My.Settings class, or when I try to assign a newly assigned setting to a variable. Sometimes the settings update OK at run time; other times times they update only after the application closes; and other times still they appear to update at run-time, then when I close the program and reopen- they go back to the previous settings.This is how I assign a value to a my settings and how I assign a setting value to a variable.[code]
