String Functions

Steve,

The System.String class has a wonder and power set methods. You must be an old vb6 programmer and I am too, but I have come to greatly prefer the system.string methods such as string.replace, string.contains, string.substring to the vb functions. For one thing they are zero based which is compatible with vs2005.

It's not that Right and Left no longer work. They are included as Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings.Right(String, Integer) and all you have to do is to use an Imports statement at the beginning of a class ( Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings) and that will include the namepsace to make them accessible.

"The string functions Left(),Instr(), Right(), etc. do not work, and others, like Replace, do not work correctly"

we don;t know exactly what "does not work" mean. Also I've never seen this using purley Microsoft classes.

Let us know more if you can.
