Hi all ,

I have a string and in that string I am passing value like this

"FR-0612-037320-CHARITY REF 006 0600051970001"

I would like to assign same string to another string but value should be

"FR-0612-037320-CHARITY REF 006"

I mean the last word should be avoided, how should I do this?

Please help me from this issue

Solution 1

Try this:

VB

Dim line As String = "FR-0612-037320-CHARITY REF 006 0600051970001";
Dim secondLine As String;

secondLine = line.SubString(0,line.LastIndexOf(" "))

Above answer already Solved your Question.
I am just giving the Function which will Solve your Problem.

VB

Public Function GetSubString(Bvyal S1 as String)As String
     Return (S1.Remove(S1.LastIndexOf(" ")))
End Sub

Just Call above Function by passing your String as Parameter

VB

MesageBox.Show(GetSubString("FR-0612-037320-CHARITY REF 006 0600051970001"))
