VS 2010 Replace First Occurrence Of An Entire Word?

Jul 19, 2011

A little background... I'm trying to build a spell checking form. I have this lovely library: [URL] and it seems to be working flawlessly.

The problem I have is trying to replace an entire word and only the first occurence of the word.

Example: Replace the first instance of "foo" with "bar" in the following string
"foo foo foobar" and get this "bar foo foobar"

I've been trying regular expressions with no luck. Here are the patterns I've tried compiling(these are obviously tied to variables in my program):

"(?<!foo)foo"
"(foo){1}"

I also tried the built in string.replace method with a count parameter, but I have no idea how I would make that match the entire word.

MemoryStream Truncating Input - Replace All Instances Of A Certain Character With A Unicode Character?

Jul 10, 2009

I am working on a sub that essentially needs to open a text file, and replace all instances of a certain character with a unicode character. I'm trying to do this by reading the original text file byte by byte, converting it to a character, and then either adding that character to a memory stream or writing the unicode character to the memory stream. Then I'm saving the memory stream to the original file.

Using InStr To Replace A Character From A String

Jan 21, 2011

What i am trying to do is take a character (which is going to be into a variable by user input) and search a string for this character, and save the positions of all character found and then change the same position of these characters in another string for the character that the user inputs. In other words, like a guess a word game. User tryes a guess, i search the string for that letter or number, if it's there replace it on the text box of the GUi, if not save it in another variable as a character that has been tried already, possibly an array.

RichTextBox - How To Replace Character / Word In Text

Feb 17, 2012

How can I replace character/word in text (loaded to richboxtext) but only for those which are not on the "block" list ?
Dim str As String = RichTextBox2.Text
RichTextBox3.Text = str.Replace("1"c, "A"c)

But I want add list of words which should be excluded. I thought that I can do something like :
Dim str As String = RichTextBox2.Text
If Regex.IsMatch(RichTextBox2.Text, "shows") Then
Else
RichTextBox3.Text = str.Replace("%"c, " "c)
End If
RichTextBox3.Text = str.Replace("1"c, "A"c)
Dim str2 As String = RichTextBox3.Text
RichTextBox3.Text = str2.Replace("2"c, "B"c)

But it's not working as it will just skip replace of % for whole text and I want just just exclude particular word from list from being replaced...
