View 3 RepliesHow can I Convert a Unicode value to its equivalent string for example i have "రమెశ్" and i need a function that accepts this unicode value and returns a string I was looking at the System.Text.Encoding.Convert() function but that does not take in a Unicode value, it takes 2 encodings and a byte array. I bascially have a byte array that I need to save in a string field and then come back later and convert the string first back to a byte array. So i use ByteConverter.GetString(byteArray) to save the byte array to a string but can't get it back to a byte array.

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to write a function to find a word in a string in the this format : "ThisissometextthatIneedtofindandthisisthetext. This is another text."It's read as " This is some text that I need to find and this is the text. This is another text." but there is no space between each word. I want to get the word "text" or any word in that string. Can you help me with this function with a code sample ?
And I think that this method can be implemented with a string of Unicode also because in a sentence of Unicode it contains one or few, sometimes zero spaces between each word.

I have a string, lets say "((HRARNT*50)/100) + ((HRA*10)/100)"
And, i have value for HRA, HRARNT in a DGV and i want to replace it with its value to get "((5000*50)/100) + ((3500*10)/100)"
But, problem arises when it replace HRARNT with "3500RNT" as it got HRA value in DGV.
Now, i want it to first check if its prefixed or suffixed with +,-,*,/,),( then only it should replace with its subsequent value from DGV.
Though, first i tried placing HRA,HRARNT in [] and then replace, which worked fine, but users don't want to add [].
How to implement above logic?

View 1 RepliesI'm reading data in from a comma-separated text file and storing the data in an array for later use. Some of the values are to remain as strings, and I need to convert some to integers, for which I was trying to use, for example, integer.parse(ar(0)).

View 7 RepliesI'm trying to create an address bar, much like Google chrome's, where you can enter a url and it will navigate to it or enter just text and it will search Google etc.
I've been at this for a while Googling away, but I can't find a reasonable solution. I know I could look for things like: 'http' etc, but these come in an almost unlimited number of variations. I could also created a webbrequest to test its existence, but I think this could cause an unwanted slow down in the programs operations.
