IS there a better way to do the following, I mean is there any way to replace the Word variable with a backspace directly instead of trimming the space after the word has been repalced?
For Each Word As String In remove_words
If user_input3.Contains(Word) Then
user_input3 = Regex.Replace(user_input3, Word, "")

My Ciphering program, Ciphers words from one text box to another one. A letter is put in front of each word to tell the length of the that word. Every character that gets entered into the text box will change the outputs text box. I am going to use HELLO as an example. The Number one, will represent the Original text, the number Two will represent the Ciphered text. [Code]
As you see, the first letter is the length of the word, as I said before. The other letters or gotten by getting the position of the letter in the alphabet and adding it with the length of the word. H H is the 8 letter in the alphabet, and so far, the length of the word is one. So you do 8 + 1 which is 8. AI That is where I got the I in this right here. HE H is the 8 letter in the alphabet, and now the word length is 2, so 8 + 2 = 10. The 10 letter in the alphabet is J, so the I in AI turns to J.
E is the 5 letter in the alphabet. 5 + 2 = 7. The 7 letter in the alphabet is G. That is where the G comes from. BJG The B is the second letter in the alphabet, and there is 2 letters in the word.
In order for me to keep track of each word, I store each word in a dictionary. That is the only method that I could get to work while using the word length character (The character in front of each word)
My big problem is if I want to backspace and go back for it to edit that word that it took a letter of.
My program know that there is a new word because when it recognizes that the selected character = " ", it creates a new add in the dictionary. Here is an example of 2 words that are ciphered.
HELLO THERE
EMJQQT EYMJWJ
I split it at the T to show you the 2 different words, and that the first word is ciphered the exact same as it was in the example at the top of the page.
Now I am pretty sure that I could get it to edit the most frequent word, but I know I would not be able to edit the past words because it seems that when I add something to the dictionary, it stays local as the variables, and not as new for its self. [Code]
That is not even close to exactly what the code looks like, but it is close I guess. Redundant, I know.What it does is for that word, each Letter is getting added to the Dictionary and is called by the number 1. So when H is typed, H gets added to item 1. When E is typed, item 1 is now HE, and so on for that whole word.
When a character = " ", a new dictionary is added but adding one to DicNum, and then repeating the process. What I have found out is that it will not keep the first dictionary, and come to think of it I only think that it keeps the most recent letter that was added to the dictionary.
The day that I was working on this I was searching for a while on how to use join, but found nothing. My question is, is there a better way or more efficient way to cipher each word and then edit the word that is being edited by backspace? Lets leave out the part where Dictionary1 and Dictionary2 or not need. [Code]
I want to have a msgbox when user press 'backspace' in the textbox.
I wrote this:
Private Sub TextBox2_KeyPress(ByVal KeyAscii As Integer)

Why it doesn't work?
Have a sentence:
I have a test.
Now, I want to know how many 2-word group in this sentence. I can do this using: New Regex("([a-zA-Z]+s+(?=[a-zA-Z]+))") to get this #.
Is there a way to capture these 2-word groups?
in this example it should be:
I have
have a
a test
can we do this in regular expression directly?
make a program to replace the word followed by the selected. But I got stuck at the start..An Example:"My name is Dunley Mike and my father, Dunley Robin are on a holiday at the mountain. There they will meet the uncle Dunley Harry." So what I want to do is to loop through the text for the word Dunley (Underlined) and replace the First name (Bolded) (Mike, Robin, & Harry) to 'family'.

Conversion from string "player1BuzzLock" to type 'Boolean' is not valid.
This is technically correct but why would it fail?

I'm a newbie in VB.NET, I am trying to directly set the bits of a single variable. For example - dim afloat as single afloat = &h0000000c afloat will then be set to to '12'. However, I wish to actually set the bits of afloat to &h0000000c, which will give a different value.
View 1 Repliesi need to replace the whole word from a string.
for example. String= "Hi VBFriends, I am learning VB 2010."
i need to replace only VB as C#.
if i put String.Replace, its changing as "Hi C#Friends,I am learning C# 2010."
i used regex, Word boundary but not worked, below my code.
Dim sHTMLStream As String = "Hi VBFriends, I am learning VB 2010."
Dim oColl As MatchCollection = Regex.Matches("sHTMLStream", "\bvb", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase)
For Each sTemp As Match In oColl
MessageBox.Show(sTemp.Value)

View 2 RepliesLet'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])?

How can I replace character/word in text (loaded to richboxtext) but only for those which are not on the "block" list ?

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)

How 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.

"foo foo foobar" and get this "bar foo foobar"

I am having an issue using a datagrid. I can use it fine on my development machine in VB 2005. But, when I deploy it to a client and they try to access the datagrid this message comes up:To run this example, replace the value of the connectionString variable with a connection string that is valid for your system.
Both machines are running Windows XP Pro (SP3). Is there some type of assembly for datagrids that I am missing in my application or some prerequisite that I need to install as part of the solution.
