i have to find a string in an array. i am using array.indexof method to get the index of matched item. now problem is that indexof method comparison is case sensitive and i cannot restrict user to provide case sensitive string.[code]
View 3 RepliesI've been using text.indexof() to see if a string is located inside another string, however is it it possible to do a case sensitive/insensitive search option? I've been looking around Google and not having much luck with it.
A huge bonus would be if it could count the number of occurrences inside the string!
I'm building a listview search feature in my app. (See the code below). It works really well, except if you search "T" then the code removes all items, if you search "t" then it removes every item except for those starting with "t". Is there any way to make a 'like' statement, or use some kind of wildcard to make the statement not case sensitive?

visual basic.net is case insensitive so it allows the coder to write without caring or remembering the casing of variables. it also relieves from the 'undeclared variable' errors if you use the variable in another case than the one used in declaration. The fact that its line termination is a line feed makes it even more readable unlike C# or c++ that need good care in the casing and contineous war with following up with the {}, matching them and figuring out which is for which.
my question is what are the advantages of c# over vb knowing that both get compiled to MSIL so there is almost no performance difference between the two languages?
I was wondering if there was a way to create a parameter for a method in VB.NET 2005, to select which case(upper, lower) to test for.For Example
Function Afunction1 (ByVal aString As String, ByVal case As ......) As Boolean
End Function
Where case is the paramter for the user to set as upper or lower.

Variable names in VB.NET are typically case insensitive. The GetProperty method on Type seems to be case sensitive when it comes to the property name. Is there a way to call this method "VB.NET style" and ignore case? Or am I SOL here and need to apply a C# mentality and worry about casing?

View 3 RepliesI just came across an interesting scenario. I have a class in C#:

As C# is case sensitive, this will treat the two variables A and a as distinct. I want to inherit the above class in my VB code, which is not case sensitive. How will the VB code access the two distinct variables A and a?
I am working on a VB.Net application that needs to access a web service that I am nearly certain has a C# backend. At bare minimum, the backend is providing classes to me that are differentiated only by case, and within a number of those classes, there are properties and methods that are only differentiated by case.
VB.Net is case insensitive, and it sees a number of these items as being ambiguous.I've thought of a few ways of dealing with this, but I would like suggestions before I go down a road that is likely difficult.
Here are some ways I have considered going about it.Modifying the generated code for the wsdl. This has presented problems in responding as the xml output would no longer conform to the webservice requirements.I think there might be some attributes I could use to override this, but I'm not sure what they are yet. Even so, this web service gets frequent updates and I would hate to have to keep refixing the service every time I refreshed it.Creating a csharp wrapper project where I expose the underlying classes with different names. Primarily through inheritance. Although the big problem here has been the issue with properties and methods that are only differentiated by case as well.
I'm sure at some point I could get one or the other of these solutions working, but if anyone has any better suggestions that I'm not thinking of,
I've hit a small issue on a project of mine. I have a comboboxcolumn on a datagridview and the items list has the items ("enabled" "disabled") as the values (stored at design time). When my sql table gets the value "Enabled" or "ENABLED" stored somehow as it's value then I throw a dataerror.
I am trying to avoid this dataerror, I was told to modify the value during the cellformatting event however with my experience the dataerror fires before the formatting. What is the workaround to this behavior? As a textboxcell type the error is not present, it's all because of the case sensitivity of the "items" list on my comboboxcell
Is there anyway to use LIKE operator in VB.NET as case sensitive or insensitive during runtime? For example use a flag to do case sensitive or insensitive comparisons.Obviously this can be done by simple converting them into lower case and forcing application to Option Compare Binary but maybe there is a better way to do this?

View 4 RepliesI have all-one-case strings representing postal addresses stored in a database, but I want to capitalize US state abbreviations (e.g. " ca " to " CA ") when the abbreviation is separated from the rest of the string by a space on either side.The lousy way I could do it would be to have 50 statements like
If addressString.Contains(" al ") Then addressString.Replace(" al ", " AL ")
If addressString.Contains(" ak ") Then addressString.Replace(" ak ", " AK ")

I have 8 sentences, such as:
"Hello and we Hope you enjoy our service<100>"
"Good Morning Mr something nice to see you <200>"
"Good Evening Welcome to this domain <300>" etc etc
(The actual requirement is long sentence about 10 or 15 word and 8 different sentences.) I want to check which on is the response from the xmlhttp, I am doing that by searching the response if it contain <100> or <200> or <300> and depends on that I want to display "Login Faild", "Login success", "Server Down" etc.. what I mean, I have a place for 4 words in my listview and i don't want to put the complete response that came from the server, my question is, how to do it? I had tried to use Select Case in this way, it did not worked.
Select Case MyResponse
Case MyResponse.Contain("<100>")
MyResult = "Login Failed"
[code]....
Is there anyway I can build a Select statement that uses the Contains function? Like this:
Select commentStr
Case commentStr.Contains("10")
Case commentStr.Contains("15")
Is there any way to use Dim Str as String = "UPPERlower"Str.Contains("UpperLower") and have it return true?
