View 2 RepliesI'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:
If c <> chr(10) Then
list.add(c)
End If

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 1 RepliesI am new to programming with vb2008 and I am trying to fill out a form on line. The form looks for keystrokes and keeps track of the number of characters typed. There are two elements on the form that use this method. The first area will allow me to fill in the data using the usual method of setting the attribute "value" of the field as the data I wish to insert. But the characters are not counted. The second area does not fill at all.The code for the fields are as follows.
<div id="fck_editor">
<input type="hidden" id="body" name="body" value="" style="display:none" /><input type="hidden" id="body___Config" value="" style="display:none" /><iframe id="body___Frame" src="/includes/js/fckeditor2.6.4/editor/fckeditor.html?InstanceName=body&Toolbar=Default" width="649" height="410" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>

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 have an array of items where i have separated the first two characters, which in my case are ID tags. I have populated my CLBox and the output is like this
AA
Aa
BB
[Code]...
What would the process be to do this, would i need to create a reference list or stringbuilder for all the tags(there is about 3000 tags) or would it be possible to loop through and count the matches. I declared the Tags thinking that i could do something from there.
How would you select the last part of a string starting at a specific character count. For example I would like to get all text after the 3rd comma. but I get an error saying "StartIndex cannot be less than zero."
Dim testString As String = "part, description, order, get this text, and this text"
Dim result As String = ""
result = testString.Substring(testString.IndexOf(",", 0, 3))

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

How do I count the number of times that a string appears in another string. I know this code:
If odocument.ToString.Contains("window.alert") Then
pops = pops + 1
End If
But that will just see if the desired string contains "window.Alert" once, rather than how many times it does contain it.
