Dim result As String = ""

If I input "TEST" into the function above. The output is "TEST". Ideally it would output "Test". I also tried the code snippets from this post to no avail: Use of ToTitleCase.

View 6 RepliesWhat's the best way to handle this situation: I have this generic function
Function FieldValue(Of T)(row As DataRow,fieldName As String) As T
Return If(row.IsNull(fieldName),Nothing,CType(row(fieldName),T))
End Function
In the special case where the field value is null and T is String, I want to return String.Empty instead of Nothing.

View 2 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 ")
...
Edit: That is a really lousy way! Here's what I did instead:
addressString = StrConv(addressString, VbStrConv.ProperCase)
'This needed to be done anyway, but it turns " ak " into " Ak ".
Static stateAbbrevs As New List(Of String)(New String() {" Ak ", " Al ", " Ar "...})
For Each a In stateAbbrevs
If addressString.Contains(a) Then

If I use code such as NewName = StrConv(OrigName, vbProperCase) to convert names to proper case, i.e. with initial capitals, I get unwanted results with Irish names like the following:
O'neill instead of O'Neill
O'grady instead of O'Grady

Any way to change the case of a string using the String.Format command. For example, you can do this:
String.Format("{0,50}","My Info")
And it gives it a fixed width string output, I need to allow the user to change the case. All they can pass in is the format "{0,50}" so NO .net functionality, we wrap it up for them. In VB6 you could use a ">" "<" to change the case, surely M$ must have added a way to do this?

I want to take a string from a text box and split each letter of the string into an array. Then, I want to take the first item in the array(the first letter of the string)and capitalize it. Once I've done all that, I want to combine the array and convert it back to the original string it was, except I want the first letter to be capitalized(I've already placed this into a variable.)
Here's what I've come up with so far:

How to correctly convert string containing upper ASCII characters to byte array besides looping through each character and filling the array using AscW(chr)?I know I can do something like:
Code:
Dim bSourceData As Byte() = System.Text.ASCIIEncoding.GetBytes(sourcedata)
But this only works for lower ascii characters (0-127).Instead of ASCIIEncoding I can specify encoding myself (System.Text.Encoding.Getencoding(encoding).GetBytes(sourcedata)). But I have to specify correct encoding in this case, otherwise most of special characters are converted to "?". What should I do if I don't know the encoding?
Here is what ive got:
a1 = inputbox("YES or NO")
If a1 = "YES" Or a1 = "yes" Then
That's all we need to know. There are a variety of choices people could put in the input box:
YES
YEs
YeS
yES
yes
Yes
yEs
yeS
I don't want to do if a1 = "YES" or a1 = "YEs" or ... etc
Is there some way I can do:
if a1 = allcase."YES" then
Or something along the lines of that?
I'm currently using this bit of code to let only Y, N, and Backspace be typed in my textbox: [code] My problem is that when I debug, the "n" has to be capitalized in order for it to show up in my textbox and the "y" has to be lower cased. Is there anyway that I can bypass this to where it doesn't matter wether or not it is upper or lower case?

SerialPort1.Write(buildpacket(useraddress,252,"0006","0") for the function listed below.My challenge.Create equivalent functionality for Socket BeginSend() which requires a byte array.Whether modifying the vb.net below or getting a c# equivalent to work, it has been repeatedly recommended to scrap the string concatenation approach for which I have to use Encoding.BigEndianUnicode.GetBytes() and then getting rid of extra bytes with zero values.
I'm lacking in imaging something different which would work for socket programming directly and allow me to eliminate all the hassles that c# integer conversions into string value that can be encoded trouble free.I would need to call the equivalent of the following that would return a byte array rather than a string with the following arguments

View 3 RepliesI have a series of text fields on a simple form (inside a group box) I would like to enforce all the text be upper case upon submission to the database. I know I can use the Ucase command. The question is implementation. How can I very efficiently force all the field values to upper case vs. say doing Ucase(TextBox1), Ucase(TextBox2).... ( I have 12 fields in this case) Is there a way to treat the text boxes as a collection and do it in one shot? Just trying to be very efficient and create clean, tight code even on such a simple thing.
