I have 2 text boxes and I load a text file in to each box, the files contents are "almost" exactly the same but not 100%. how would i compare the 2 against eachother and output the difference in percentage? I've made a program once before it was pretty cool it did all these things and it was in VB.Net i just cant remember how i did it.. i do know i counted how many of the sames words exist but i cant remember what else i did.

View 1 RepliesI have 2 textboxes where the user enters texts of same length. I need to do a char by char comparison. For this, i used Chars(i). Now, i have been trying to highlight the differences at the string index which is different. I am not able to figure a way out for that.
for example:
string1 = HELLO
string2 = WELLM
When the user hits Compare button, the code should highlight H and W, and also O and M maybe in the same respective textboxes or 2 different labels etc.
I'm trying to create a little program that compares the text from two richtextboxes and displays the differences in text between the two. I.E. one text box contains "i like cheese" and the other contains "i like blue cheese" I want it to display the word blue in a 3 richtextbox. I'm just not sure what the best way to go about it is

View 3 RepliesI am trying to compare 2 strings from 2 listbox's, sort of a fuzzy match then output the results in a treeview I'm trying to tell it to split the words where spaces appear such as "The Dog Went Up The Hill",So that would see that as 6 words and then compare that to listbox2 which may contain "the dog went up the hill last night" which would the return an 80% match,but i just can't get my head round this, here's my code.

Is there a simple way to compare and combine two strings? Example:

I suspect there is something wrong in my application, specifically in a part where I have to compare a couple strings and a couple integers.
I do something like this:
If myString = myOtherString Then
do something
End If
And the same thing for integers.
However, for some reason, it is not returning true... also, I heard somewhere there were more proper ways to compare strings and integers.
I have a Label and a textbox that both contain strings. I want to compare the two strings like this:
If TextBox5.Text = Label18.Text Then
Label4.Text = "CLOSED"
Else
Label4.Text = "OPEN"

Something in there is not working however. Has anyone done something similar?
how to compare values of two different strings.
View 2 Repliesis it possible to compare a string with substring of other case insensitively
I have tried it through string.compare() but i is case sensitive
if(details_local.Contains(details))
true only if the case matches else it is false
for example i have two strings 0000 and 0001 then
0000
0001
----
result= 000- here difference is indicated by - sign

This string stringSplit(0).tostring returns the city name say "Glasgow" i was trying to loop the listview that stores the cities, if they match then put a check mark, this is where the cities are located: (formAddCities.listViewCities.(FIRST ITEM IN COLUMN WHICH IS CITY NAME) the very first column in the listview, but i can't seem to get the right syntax?
I've build a list of Strings from files. The list itself is working fine (tried it by having ListBoxes and other controls loading its items from there just to make sure that this is not the issue). Now, I am using this list of strings to compare a Text in a TextBox1 while typing to determine if this TextBox1.Text already exists in the list. I am using the following code (where "s" stands for my List items):
Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged
If TextBox1.TextLength < "1" Then
Button6.Enabled = False
ToolStripStatusLabel1.Image = My.Resources.pic_Add_Warning
ToolStripStatusLabel1.ForeColor = Color.Red

I am trying to write a program that will compare two strings in different text boxes. Then it must add 1 to a third text box for every time a letter appears in both text boxes. So for example if textbox1 said ABCDF and textbox 2 said ABTR it should return the number 2 because A and B appear in both.
This is what I have so far
Public Class Form1 Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles string1.TextChanged
End Sub
Private Sub Compare_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Compare.Click
Dim string1 As String
Dim string2 As String
Dim Result As Integer
End Sub
Function stringcompare(ByVal string1 As String, ByVal string2 As String, ByVal string3 As String) As Integer
stringcompare(string1 As string, string2 As string) End Function End Class

View 39 RepliesI have a list of strings. For each string in that list, I want to prepend another string. I wrote a method to do it, but I was wondering if there was something already in .NET I could use to do this. It seems like something that could be built in, but I was not able to find anything.
Here is the method I wrote:
Private Function PrependToAllInList(ByRef inputList As List(Of String), ByRef prependString As String) As List(Of String)
Dim returnList As List(Of String) = New List(Of String)
For Each inputString As String In inputList
returnList.Add(String.Format("{0}{1}", prependString, inputString))

It works, but I would rather use built in functions whenever possible.
I'm migrating from VB6 to VB.NET, in hence my questions below:
I have to write a function that returns array of strings.
How can I initiate it to empty array? I need it since I have to check if it's empty array after it returns from this function.
Is list of arrays better for this purpose? If I use a list - Is it empty when it firstly defined? How can I check it it's empty?
they need to make some compare version between host version and client version.. and each 1 version different will download the file to the client..[URL]..with both example, how can i make a program in VB.NET just like i said just now?
View 15 RepliesWhat are the differences between 32 and 64-bit .NET (4) applications?Often 32-bit applications have problems running on 64-bit machines and conversely. I know I can declare an integer as int32 and int64 (certainly int64 on 32-bit systems make problems). Are there other differences between programming an 32 OR 64-bit or a both 32 AND 64-bit compatible application?
