Hello there!
I need to delete the first character on EACH line, IF it is a space. JUST the first character, since I have other spaces in other parts on that line. The stuff will be in a textbox.

View 7 RepliesI am making a small and very simple game that is ment to help children learn to recognise letters. I have come to a stop as I have 3 text fields. When something is entered into the first field, the program will set focus to the next text field. The problem is when the child tries to delete a character from a previous field as the focus is already set to the next text field. I want it to delete the character from the previous field when the backspace bar is hit. Any suggestion how this might be done?

View 3 RepliesI am working on a sub that essentially needs to open a text file, and replace all instances of a certain character with a unicode character. I'm trying to do this by reading the original text file byte by byte, converting it to a character, and then either adding that character to a memory stream or writing the unicode character to the memory stream. Then I'm saving the memory stream to the original file.

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 2 RepliesIn my VB.NET application I compare words that are recorded using IPA, many of which have many diacritic marks. In one of the comparisons, I compare the words character by character. But when I iterate over the characters, the diacritic marks come out as separate characters (as I would expect since this is unicode)However, a u character is different than a u plus an accent for the purposes of this program and needs to be distinguished.
