Detect The Form Of A Letter "Character"?

Apr 12, 2011

Almost each letter of my mother tongue (Arabic) has two or more forms to be written with, due to its position (At the beginning, middle or end of a word) and what are the two letters before and after it, however, I've been trying to figure why when I type something in a textbox and use the AscW method to get the character code, it returns a code for the same character but not of the same form, which means:

If I type a word starting with the letter above, the letter would be in the initial form (its Unicode is &HFED3 = 65235) , but when I use the AscW to get the code of the first character it returns the code (&H641 = 1601) of the same letter in actually none of the previous forms but apparently in the isolated form (&HFED1 = 65233).I've also tried to convert the default encoding to the Unicode's but had no accepted result and no solution through reading the two Unicode bytes (which had to be [211, 254]).

P.S. I tried something else:

TextBox1.Text = ChrW(&HFED3)

Msgbox(AscW(TextBox1.Text(0)))

to check if the problem is the AscW method, but it worked just fine, I have another idea running through my mind but I'm still not sure about it .So, is there any way to detect the actual form of a Unicode character?

Character Loop - Letter "l" Gets Read Out, Instead Of The Letter "ll"

Oct 19, 2010

Basically, there are letters in welsh which act as one character e.g. "ch", "ng" and "ll". As you can see by the code, i am trying to do this with "ll" right now.

Dim s As String = Label5.Text 'easy enough to see what i did there.
Dim i As Integer = s.Length 'easy enough to see what i did there.

For i2 = 0 To i - 1 'declare the loop

[CODE]...

The problem is that the letter "l" gets read out, instead of the letter "ll". So theres my problem, what i need to do may seem simple to some, but i can't see how something like this would work.

Detect For A Specific Character In A String?

Jul 11, 2011

so in a program I'm working on in VB.NET I'm trying to make it so I can take in a list of strings (each on a different line). For each line I want to take in the line, and break it up into three parts. The first part goes from the beginning of the string to the first colon in the string, the second part goes from the first colon to the at symbol, and the last part goes from the at symbol to the end of the string.

For example, I'd take in a line of the series of lines: hello:world@yay

I'd want to break it into three separate strings of "hello", "world", and "yay".

How would I do such a thing in VB.NET?

Is there a way to detect a Chinese character in a string which is build like this:

dim test as string = "letters 中國的"

Now I want to substring only the Chinese characters. But my code is database driven, so I can't substring it, because the length is always different. So is there a way I can split the string, from the moment I detect a Chinese character?

Detect CD Drive Regardless Of Drive Letter?

Jan 2, 2010

I have a function that copies files from a CD to my HDD:CopyFiles(CD_Drive, FullPath & "")

The problem is that the Drive letter "I:" is not consistent. Sometimes when I connect and disconnect external devices, the CD Drive letter changes and then my code doesn't work unless I open the project, change the letter "I" and recompile.What code can I use that will ALWAYS detect my CD Drive, regardless of the drive letter? (Like for instance, NERO will detect and burn CDs regardless of the drive letter)

Program Files Folder - No Drive Letter The Form Opens?

Sep 21, 2009

I currently have a program that I made which opens other apps packaged with an installer. I have set the installer to install everything to the Program Files folder. However, not all computers have a C: hard drive. I have a way in which they can enter their drive letter in one form then in the next form it remembers the drive and will take them to the program. The problem is my program stores the drive letter in an xml file. On the startup of the program it looks in the xml file to find the drive letter, if there is no drive letter the form opens then lets the user set his drive letter. The xml file is stored in the folder "Math Wizard" in the Program Files folder. But if not all computers have C:Program Files I need a shortcut to the program files folder. I have been trying to use %ProgramFiles% (%Program Files% + "Math Wizardconfig.xml") but vb is saying that the % is an invalid character. Here's my code:

How To Detect If Form Resized

I am trying to discover how to detect that a form has been resized, or rather, that a form is being resized. I need to call a sub to handle the resizing of text in relation to the new size of a form or control. I have found that setting a minimum height and width works behind the scene so I figure there must be something watching the form size but can't find what or where it is.

Filling Out Web Form With Character Count?

Jun 22, 2010

I 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>
