Find All Instances Of A Letter If It Appeared Multiple Times In A Word?

Apr 19, 2011

How would I find all instances of a letter if it appeared multiple times in a word? For example if I had the word 'mississippi', how would I find every 's' or every 'i' or every 'p'?

I know how to use the string.IndexOfMethod() so I was thinking I could find the first letter, mark that position, and search again from there. Then I would keep looping until the end of the letter. But I'm not sure how to signal the end of the loop.

I have a combobox, which I use to store the ComboText as well as the number of times that particular word(s) was clicked on inthat session. The code I use for the Combobox looks like:

Code:

[code].....

The problem is, once it has found a duplicate item, it stops counting.What I'm trying to say is, it finds ASP 2 Advanced as a duplicate, with its "click time", it finds Dreamweaver Advanced as a duplicate, but doesn't find its "click time"I need to find the items, then add together all their respected click times, for example: ASP 2 Advanced has 5, then 2 So the total must be 7 Dreamweaver Advanced has 1 and 1 so the total must be 2?

Dec 14, 2010

I am trying to make a program which goes through the HTML code of a page and then searches for a certain phrase. I have gotten up to the point of executing a search on a site and then dumping the html code of the body.How would I go about doing this?

The phrase I'm looking for is "<tr><td><a
href=javascript:d(87178)>Name of File</a></td><td>Date Submitted</td><td>Likelyness
to work(%)</td></tr>

All I would need to do is find the number inside of the parenthesis (87178) in this example and I THINK I'm good to roll, so how would I do that?

Random Number Generator Generating Same Number Many Times?

Sep 17, 2011

I have this program generating a firstname and lastname from a file. When I run this program I enter information in three textboxes. The first two are the salary low and high(salary1.text, salary2.text) and the last one is the number of "copies"(copies.text) that I want.. When I put a number such as 10 in the text box it outputs some of the same names. The firstname file has around 100 records and the lastname file has about 1000 records Why is it generating the same name The problem is even worse if I do something like 1000 copies.. it outputs the same thing 8 times and then does something different another 8 times

Public Class Form1
Dim sex As String
Function randomfirstname()
Dim infile As IO.StreamReader
