asked on

parse string

hi there; i'd like to parse the following:

dim strTemp = "ib01h"

and retrieve just "01"

so, basically, i just need everything between the 2nd character and the "h"

thanks all.

Hi,

use,
   yourString.Substring(2,yourString.IndexOf("h")-2);

here 2 is the startindex. (Hope "h" will be a fixed.)

hi, sam, thanks for your response ... actually, the "h" was just a reference to illustrate the cutoff... sorry to confuse you ... but, thanks again.
