I am using VB.NET's TextFieldParser (Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.TextFieldParser) to read a delimited file. However, when I try to read in a field with consecutive newlines within the field, the consecutive newlines are turned into a single new line. I would like the consecutive newlines to be preserved, but am unsure how.Here's an example file that I am reading in with exactly one field. The quotes are part of the file's content and there are three newlines (including the two consecutive newlines following line 2):
"This is line 1
This is line 2
This is line 4, which follows two consecutive newlines."Here is the code that I am using to parse and read in the file:
Dim reader as New Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.TextFieldParser(myFile, System.Text.Encoding.Default)
reader.TextFieldType = FileIO.FieldType.Delimited
reader.SetDelimiters(",")

I need to remove all quotes from an image tag found within lots of other text. For example, I want to make
<img src="folder/image.gif" target="_blank" />
into
<img src=folder/image.gif target=_blank />
I'm using vb, and need to use a regEx specifically for the img tag and not use replace. The img tag can be in a block of other text, so I need to use regEx to search for the <img and then within that until I meet a /> I need to remove all quotes.
It's the same with how to remove double white space using regexp
View 3 Repliesgive me a working regex expression (C#/VB.NET) that can remove single line comments from a SQL statement ?I mean these comments:
-- This is a comment
not those
/* this is a comment */
because I already can handle the star comments.I have a made a little parser that removes those comments when they are at the start of the line, but they can also be somewhere after code or worse, in a SQL-string 'hello --Test -- World' Those comments should also be removed (except those in a SQL string of course - if possible).Surprisingly I didn't got the regex working. I would have assumed the star comments to be more difficult, but actually, they aren't.
As per request, here my code to remove /**/-style comments (In order to have it ignore SQL-Style strings, you have to subsitute strings with a uniqueidentifier (i used 4 concated), then apply the comment-removal, then apply string-backsubstitution.
static string RemoveCstyleComments(string strInput)
{
string strPattern = @"/[*][wds]+[*]/";
//strPattern = @"/*.*?*/"; // Doesn't work

I have a string with 60000+ characters. I look for informations inside the string in a sequentially order. Every time I found a information I delete whatever is behind that information. In other words I reduce the size of the string every time I find something, and I do this using IndexOf and Remove, much like this:
vb.net Str = Str.Remove(0, Str.IndexOf("MyInfo"))
This can be quite heavy on the processor. So my question is it faster to look the informations using Regex or it would be about the same?
I'm sorry if it's a duplicate of some question but this is specific on Vb.Net Regex function.
I need to remove any occurrence of 3 or more duplicate characters on a given string. For example:
Dim strTmp As String = "111111.......222222 and 33"
Dim output As String = Regex.Replace(strTmp, "????", "")
Debug.Print(output)
The "????" part I guess should be the Regex expression, which I must assume I know almost nothing about.
I don't know if that's the correct syntax. But I need the output to come as:
"1.2 and 33"

I have a VB method
Public Sub append_text(ByVal s As String)
f1.TextBox1.AppendText(s)
End Sub
which is called over COM from C++
_bstr_t b(L"test

");
ATLENSURE_SUCCEEDED(t->append_text(b));
But the text box ends up saying
testnewlines
Without the aforementioned new lines.Why is that then?
I am having an issue where I am using regex.Replace to replace part of a string. The basic idea is that I want to capture the beginning of the string then replace the end of the string with a value from code. For an example pretend I have a string that says "Test Number " followed by number and I want to increment that number. I capture the "Test Number " but when I try to concatenate that capture with the new number it treats the capture ($1) as a literal and replaces the entire string with $1[new number].
[code]...
This will output "We are on Test Number 2", as expected. how I can use a variable in the replacement string portion of the Regex.Replace when including a captured group?

I've been working straight since yesterday trying to get this to work. I'm a noob to RegEx and I've tested out about 5 different RegEx "builders" but each of them require you to navigate through the options to build the Regex...each of them has failed when I try to use them.Is there an application out there free/paid where you select the line you want to grab and the RegEx is auto generated from that highlight rather than having to try to build the line of code?

View 7 RepliesI'm trying to get a ComboBox to remove the 6th string in the ComboBox or an index of (5) but it doesn't remove it here is the function I am using:
if ComboBox1.items.count = 6 then
ComboBox1.Items.RemoveAt(5)
End If
why the code...
Form1.Controls.Remove(myCustomControl) ...does not remove the control.
Because whenever I remove a control and add it again, it does not Load but rather just changes its visibility from false to true and all the variables are not reloaded.
I tried to use .Dispose() but VB.net tells me thatit can't access a disposed object whenever I try to add the control again.
