Visual Basic

1. Bad idea, it means adding more if statements or even using a (shudder) goto.
2. Look at your design and break it into logical sections, each of which is self contained. You will easily see which objects are used within each section. That gives you your new methods.

what is the code

Here's some code that might give you an idea, since it takes a string, iterates through character by character, and tests each character.  Obviously your test will be different, but it should get you on the right track.  Taken from <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.string.chars.aspx">MSDN</a>[<a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.string.chars.aspx" target="_blank" title="New Window">^</a>].

<pre lang="vb">Console.Write("Type a string : ")
Dim myString As String = Console.ReadLine()
Dim i As Integer
For i = 0 To myString.Length - 1
   If Uri.IsHexDigit(myString.Chars(i)) Then
      Console.WriteLine("{0} is a hexadecimal digit.", myString.Chars(i))
   Else
      Console.WriteLine("{0} is not a hexadecimal digit.", myString.Chars(i))
   End If
Next
' The example produces output like the following:
'    Type a string : 3f5EaZ
'    3 is a hexadecimal digit.
'    f is a hexadecimal digit.
'    5 is a hexadecimal digit.
'    E is a hexadecimal digit.
'    a is a hexadecimal digit.
'    Z is not a hexadecimal digit.  </pre>
