View 2 RepliesReplace Words In A Sentence?
May 14, 2012I am trying to replace words in a sentence.
Code:
Public Function convert(ByVal sentence As String) As String
Dim conv As String = sentence
conv = Replace(conv, "I am ", "you are")
conv = Replace(conv, "I'm", "you are")
[code]....
This works to some degree but a word like "Mommy" becomes "Momyour". Or "mean" becomes "youan" How can I do this with full words only? I've tried putting spaces before and after within the quotes, but then any of the words that need changed at the beginning of a paragraph, don't change because there is no space at the beginning.
VS 2010 Replace A Word In A Sentence On Output?
Oct 14, 2011How would you replace a certain word from input to output? Like, if you type "Tigers are cool" in a text box I want the ouput after a button click to be "Lions are cool", changing 'tiger' to 'lion'. It should also be case sensitive so Tiger would convert to Lion, not lion.
View 2 RepliesUse Find/Replace To Replace Arbitrary Text Per Line?
Dec 9, 2011I have a bunch of object variables which are all initialised in their declarations such that:
Private _myObject As New ThisObject("SomeString")

I would like to use the Visual Studio Find/Replace dialog box to search for "As New" then replace everything from "As New" to the first set of speech marks with some text such that:

My original example could be solved using other methods. This example is more representative of the actual problem:

Find And Replace Hex?
Nov 22, 2011The user enters a numerical value in textbox1 and click search. This searches for this value using PackageIO (any other options you guys think would be faster would be great) and will return how many instances of that value have been found. There is a second textbox and button that will only be enabled if 1 instance is found. If more than one instance is found, an error message pops up. I'm not too experienced with PackageIO. Here is what I have so far. The program crashes every single time. I'm positive there is something wrong with either part of it or the whole thing.[code]...

View 13 RepliesKeylogging / Find And Replace?
Jun 3, 2011I have the following code which I am using to track a series of key presses as a string. When I enter the string up until the last charachter all is good.The idea is that I have my string ('--START). When I type this in any program, it will automatically be replaced with my specified string. The problem is it always leaves the last charachter.
Typing '--START Leaves me with [my replaced string]T
Typing '--END Leaves me with [my replaced string]D.
In my sendstring routine, if I place "Threading.Thread.Sleep(500)" right at the top of the routine, then it works. Obviosuly I can't have a half second delay. Is there any way to handle keypresses? Or somehow delete it otherwise?

I need to develop a small application which can do a batch find and replace on all xml files within a folder. Example:
<cardHolderName>
<firstName>Geraldine</firstName>
<middleName>
[Code].....
I want to replace ALL <firstName) tags to John and all <lastName> tags to Smith to protect sensitive date. In addition, there will be other tags such as address, ss number and phoneNumber.
NOTE: There may be multiple instances of <firstName> within the file. 1000 xml files with all replacing names, address etc. with the same fixed name such as John Smith These will be used for testing and to prevent sensitive data from being leaked
There is no doubt that I can do this the long and dirty way. (I am working on).

View 1 RepliesFind / Replace Word Puzzle
May 5, 2009Let's say I have an object that contains a Word property and a Sentence property. The sentence must use the word, and I want to replace the word in that sentence with a link using a public function (say, GetLinkedSentence). The catch is maybe the sentence uses a plural form of the word and maybe the "word" itself is actually a phrase, or is even hyphenated. There's no length limit to the word either. How do I find and replace this word (in ASP.NET, preferably VB) with a link [word])?
