Splitting each letter in a textbox

[bluejaguar456]

Hey Guys,

I have been having a few problems trying to get all the letters in a textbox to split.

I want to get any letters that the user types in a textbox to be split into each different letter.

The end result will be that i can check each letter and cross reference it with a number.

E.G. r returns 32, e returns 54

This is going to be done for every letter that the user types,

Any help would be great appreciated! Thanks.

Im not sure, but you should be able to attach to the TextBox.KeyPressed Event which sould give you the keycode of the key that was pressed.

substring keyword is for spliting the string.
and use ascii function to determine the ascii value...

If you want to do all the processing after the user is finished typing (not using an event like I mentioned earlier).

You may use a foreach loop like this.

foreach(char c in yourTextBox.Text)
    // perform action on c

is it possible to check each letter int eh order typed afterwards?

e.g user types: hello

i then check for the h then the e then the l and so in order?

thanks

this code is not working for this it is saying that char is a type and cannot used as an expression

Is this what you are looking for:

        Dim TheChars() As Char = TextBox1.Text.ToCharArray()
        For Each TmpChar In TheChars
            Debug.Print(TmpChar & " = " & Asc(TmpChar))
        Next

This code can help u

char[] textValue = textBox1.Text.ToCharArray();
foreach (char c in textValue)
lblAsciiValue.Text += (int)(c);
