Extract Some Text From A String With Unknown Length
Mar 23, 2012
Is there any function similar to string range in vb.net 2.0? What I am try to achieve here is to extract some text from a string with unknown length. eg. given string = text text text mytext1 text text text text mytext2 text text text text expected string = mytext1 text text text text mytext2 So I have the indexes for "mytext1" and "mytext2". I am looking for a way to get the text that wrapped in between those two strings or indexes.

Using Access 2003 and VB code, I have created a form with a number of labels. The labels will display an employee's names. I have named the labels name1, name2, name3...etc. Using an ADO data set and DCount I have determined the number of names in an Access table (the number of names can vary). What I want to do is for each record in succession to pick the first name and surname from the data set , combine them into a full name (this part has been successful), and then set the full name into the label caption in succession. Example: full name 1 into name1, full name 2 into name2, full name 3 into name3... until all names appear as labels on the form.
I created a counter to and a variable to increment the label number but when I address the caption property of the variable containing the new label (e.g. name1, name2..etc.) it throws an errer at runtime. Here is the code:

I have a piece of code written in Visual Basic:
Dim n As Double, i As Integer
n = 4
Dim Ramp_length(1 To 4) As Double
For i = 1 To n
Ramp_length(i) = Cells(13 + i, 5)
'Cells(65 + i, 7) = Ramp_length(i)'
Next i
Is there a way I can reproduce the result without declaring the array with a "fixed" length? I eventually want the code to read off a column of data with unknown length and store it in an array of equal or smaller length so it can be altered.

I need to seperate a name into 2 parts using split the first part being 2 letters "That was easy" but the last part of the name would have an unknown lenght. so how do I get the unknown length? I believe I understand the Join Part here is what I have but it only works when you know the lenght of the name

'Form has two textboxes and one button
'first text box holds a first and last name

The length of the previous words is exactly the same but the "truth length" it is not. I want to know if there is any way to find the truth length of a text string with different fonts The reason why I want the "truth length" is I want to make an rss scroll bar and when the first label "hiding all" in the right to send the next rss it in the left.

What am I doing wrong or do I use a incorrect way to extract text from an array? Using += takes up a lot of computing power when it reaches like 50000 characters so I want a method with much better performance

If using the following in an if statement I get an error: If trg.Name.Substring(4, 6).ToUpper <> ("ABCDEF") Then I get the error: "Index and length must refer to a location within the string. Parameter name: length"
I assume this is because the string (trg.name) is too small for the 4, 6 substring. What would be the correct method of working around this problem? VB.net Studio 2008.

I've got an application that passes commands to a terminal window and saves all the output to a text file Here is one of the commands my application passes to the terminal
MyProcess.StandardInput.WriteLine("host " + device)
The output of which is
"HostA has address Y.Y.Y.Y"
this along with a whole bunch of other text is saved to a text file...my question is how do I find the sting "HostA has address Y.Y.Y.Y" in that text file and then extract the IP address and assign it as a string variable?

I have a string which I have pulled out of a text file as shown below,[code]and I would like to split it up and get the numbers into individual string() arrays. I have tried using split , but the problem with this is that it only splits up characters with one space between them, and there could be multiple spaces between characters so it ends up storing blank spaces it a string array.[code]

I'm writing some code that takes a report from the mainframe and converts it to a spreadsheet. They can't edit the code on the MF to give me a delimited file, so I'm stuck dealing with it as fixed width. It's working okay now, but I need to get it more stable before I release it for testing. My problem is that in any given line of data, say it could have three columns of numbers, each five chars wide at positions 10, 16, and 22. If on this one particular row, there's no data for the last two cols, it won't be padded with spaces; rather, the length of the string will be only 14. So, I can't just blindly have

The end of the text document my application is reading is denoted by a character that I cant identify, copy or paste. I attached an image of it so you can see. I have no control over the formatting of the document so I can't change the character. During debugging it shows the same character as shown in the picture, but if I hit the little tack next to where the variable shows then it changes to "f". However, if I try to see if the variable equals "f" it returns false.

With setting the string length. I have got a streamreader reading from a .doc file into a listbox and then i want to set the string length of how long it to be and then if longer to go to the next line so it will fit in the listbox as the listbox you cant scroll accross but you can up and down.

I have the below code that if there is no .wav file in the current directory then it goes to the default windowsmedia directory to play a random .wav file.
But for some reason if there is no file in the current folder it will not go to the windowsmedia folder, do I have something wrong?
Dim FileNames As String() = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(".", "*.wav")
Dim FileNames2 As String() = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles("C:WindowsMedia", "*.wav")

I've created some classes that will be used to provide data to stored procedures in my database. The varchar parameters in the stored procs have length specifications (e.g. varchar(6) and I'd like to validate the length of all string properties before passing them on to the stored procedures.
Is there a simple, declarative way to do this?
I have two conceptual ideas so far:
Attributes
public class MyDataClass
{
[MaxStringLength = 50]
[Code]....
This seems like a lot of work and will really make my currently-simple classes look pretty ugly, but I suppose it will get the job done. It will also take a lot of copying and pasting to get this right.
