Finding Spaces In A String
Feb 14, 2009
I want to be able to find both spaces using the indexof method. Here's my code so far. Basically the program will turn the string "Will Smith" to "Smith, Will" But I noticed when I type in a name with a middle initial or middle name "Will J Smith" I would get "J Smith, Will" And I want to be able to find that second space when its there and apply a code that would produce "Smith, Will J" When there is a second space. How would I go about doing so?

i have string like
Dim Test as String = "abc " & " def"
what above code does is gives is "abc def" as output, what i want is "abc--------def" (where hash sign is spaces i need) i have tried
Dim Test as String = "abc----" & "----def"
for some reason (dot)net only takes it as one single space. check above(1) example ,i gave two spaces but it got converted to one space.
Dim Test as String = "abc" & Char(9) & "def"
doesn't work (found char(9) solution on internet)
Dim Test as String = "abc" & space(8) & "def"
doesn't work I have tried another 10 different option but none seems to be working for me.

Is there a way to take an integer, say 10, and convert that to 10 spaces? What I've got is a text field that the users enters a number. I then need to convert that number into spaces and insert those spaces into a string of text. I've found several places to convert text to an integer but not the other way around.

lets say I had a string variable that contained "Hello World!", (or whatever the string contained) how would i remove the the right most spaces to make it say "Hello World" (im reading in items from a text file using substrings that has fixed positions with one line of the text containing several different items) or does it automatically eliminate the right most spaces???

If i have a string "mystring" and it holds something like
"aaaaaaaa bbbbbb fffffff qwrt afsa hghf"

I used a regular expression, which handles both numbers and letters in strings of arbitrary length, in one line of code.
dim rtn as String = Regex.Replace(input, "..", "$& ")
I'd like to take numeric strings of arbitrary length and insert a space every 2 characters.
So 1233456 becomes 12 33 45 6. Is there a way I can use format as string or IFormatProvider, like? That would put a limit on how long the string could be though, right? Since I'm casting to a long.
CLng((input)).ToString("## ")
I'd like to take strings of arbitrary length and insert a space every 2 characters.
123dssas4rr should become 12 3d ss as 4r r

I have a string that I need to place to a file, but when I do place it to file, it gets cut off at the space, and the words after the space are placed to a new line. So I decided to place an underbar in place of all spaces, to avoid that problem. So how can I search the string for spaces and replace each with an underbar?

format a decimal value to a string with a single digit after the comma/dot and leading spaces for values less than 100?For example, a decimal value of 12.3456 should be output as " 12.3" with single leading space. 10.011 would be " 10.0". 123.123 is "123.1" I'm looking for a solution, that works with standard/custom string formatting, i.e.
decimal value = 12.345456;
Console.Write("{0:magic}", value); // 'magic' would be a fancy pattern.

Environment.GetCommandLineArgs() splits string with spaces in it sometimes but not others, want to avoid this.

P.S. This was a VB6 command line app that I just converted to VB.net & the behaviour only occurs in the VB.net version. It's being called in many places at the moment, so don't really want to have to manually go through all calls & add double quotes around the whole argument.

I saw a built in function in VBscript a while back that converted a string with spaces to an array. However I can't remember the name and I looked it up in a few function listings and couldn't find it. Since almost all the functions that are in VBcript are in VB.NET I was wondering if anyone remembered the name of the function.

i am trying to split a string up into separate lines with the following code, but for some reason it is also removing the spaces in the string.
Dim calculationText As String
calculationText = File.ReadAllText(fileName)
Dim fields() As String
fields = calculationText.Split(vbCrLf)
when i am in debugger mode, i look at fields, and every element has a line of the string but all the spaces and tabs are removed.

I'm implementing a feature which reads comma separated txt file from server(one line at a time). Format of file is fixed, There are 3 columns on each row. After reading the row from file I insert it in a database table. But first value of each row aoutomatically appends two blank spaces, even if there are no blank spaces at the begining of each row. I tried to use "TRIM/LTRIM/Replace" to remove blank spece from the first value of each row, but didn't succeed.

I'm writing a macro to let me replace the spaces in a string in my code file with underscores. I've gotten as far as finding the beginning and end of the string as instances of VirtualPoint. Now I'm trying to select from the first VirtualPoint to the second. And I can't figure it out. I know the VirtualPoints are correct, because I'm using MessageBox.Show to tell me their values when I run the macro. I just don't know the correct command to set the TextSelection from the first to the second. I've tried this: [Code]

I just changed a control on a form from a masked textbox to a normal textbox because I wrote my own code to validate the data. I'm trying to clear the leading spaces that were created for this column in an Access database using the LTrim function and it doesn't work for some reason. The column is " :30" in the table and when I LTrim it and save the changes, it's still " :30" , not ":30". Is that leading entry not a space character?

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 have a program that goes through SQL statements, identifying component parts with a space. eg: -
SELECT * FROM tblSales WHERE CustomerID=10 AND Year=2011
Would produce the following as separate components: -
"SELECT","*","FROM","tblSales","WHERE","CustomerID=10","AND" and "Year=2011"
The problem I have however is the use of spaces within values eg.:-
SELECT * FROM tblSales WHERE CustomerNameID='Test Company' AND Year=2011
Using the same space-separating logic, this would produce components of:

My program uses parameters from the calling program in this format
parameter1/parameter2/parameter3
parameter2 is a datafile path which may sometimes have a space like :
C:Program Files est company
I did this as a work around
Sub Main(ByVal Args() As String)
dim cArgs as string=""
Dim J As Integer
For J = 0 To Args.Length - 1
cArgs = cArgs & " " & Args(J)
Next
And then used the string split function. Is there a proper way to work with spaces?

Write a program that counts the number of spaces in a string provided by the user
-You need to use the InStr function and start it at different points within the string on each loop of the Do Until control structure.
output- needs to state how many spaces that are in the string that was inputed in the text box

I have a somewhat unique problem that I have looked for an answer to and continually hit brick walls. The problem is this. I'm using vb.net to read a byte array from memory which total 32768 in length, which is converted to a string. The memory is the active console chunk in the game Call of Duty 4.

My problem seems simple but I can't find an answer for it.I need to be able to pull a phone number (string) from an entire string. example: "My phone number is (xxx) xxx-xxxx, call me as soon as possible."
Its obvious to me that the phone number should be able to change depending on who you are talking too. So the question becomes, how do i search for the phone number's format within the above string?
