.net - Escape The # Character In A String Literal?
Dec 10, 2009If I needed to escape a double quote character within a string literal I'd use two consecutive double quotes as follows:
Dim name = "Chuck ""Iceman"" Liddell"
However, it doesn't seem like consecutive # works the same way. The compiler is expecting a compiler directive to follow the # character, even when its enclosed in double quotes. How can tell the compiler that I want a # character in my string?
EDIT: as a few of the answers below point out, # is not a reserved character. I closed my solution in Visual Studio and re-opened it and no longer got the compiler squiggles warning me.

Then I'm saving the memory stream to the original file.

String.Replace Not Replacing?
Sep 7, 2011I have an issue, i have a program im working on, that i have been working on and im trying to replace a whole block of text. I do it in one spot in my code and it works great, but in a different part of my code, even though im using the same exact logic and pretty much the same code (other than slight variable changes) it will not work, and i have no idea why, it just like ignores it.
