I have a line of code in my project: mobjText.Append (ChrW(Bytes(iIn dex)))
I took out the reference to Microsoft.Visua lBasic in my imports so that I am
forced to use all VB.NET stuff.
What is the replacement for the ChrW function?
Thanks,

I could use Microsoft.Visua lBasic.ChrW, but is there another way?

You can cast an int or a short directly to a char?

VB Programmer,
The easiest way is to use ChrW! I took out the reference to Microsoft.Visua lBasic in my imports so that
I am forced to use all VB.NET stuff.
Huh? I hope you realize that Microsoft.Visua lBasic is VB.NET, as the VB in
VB.NET stands for Visual Basic. ;-)
If you meant "forced to use all .NET stuff", I hope you realize that
Microsoft.Visua lBasic is native .NET stuff also! As I've mentioned earlier
there are items in Microsoft.Visua lBasic that makes your live easier, there
are things that "should" be avoided, I question banning the entire Assembly!
You can use Convert.ToChar to convert a byte to a char without encoding.
If you need encoding you will need to use the System.Text.Enc oding class.
Hope this helps

Hi Guys,
Boy I sure hate typing in Microsoft.Visua lBasic.Whatever . They got rid of
some of that in VB 2003, but it's still required for some commands. If MS
would pull their heads out of their asses they'd make a compiler that would
try substituting Microsoft.Visua lBasic.SomeComm and before giving up on
"SomeComman d" by itself.
Cheers,
Christian

Christian,
Huh? :-| try substituting Microsoft.Visua lBasic.SomeComm and before giving up on
"SomeComman d" by itself.
VB.NET 2002 & VB.NET 2003 already supports this:
Be certain to include "Imports Microsoft.Visua lBasic" at the top of your
source file, then you can use Whatever directly. I normally use Whatever
directly! I normally let Microsoft.Visua lBasic be imported under Project
Properties, so I do not need to include it in each source file. (Note using
Project Imports in itself is a debatable practice, which I neither endorse
nor oppose).
Not that I use Strings.Left & Strings.Right, but if I were to use them on a
Form I would use VB.Left & VB.Right, where first I did a import alias:
Imports VB = Microsoft.Visua lBasic
VB.Whatever
As Left & Right are already properties of Control, so the properties get
precedence.
Hope this helps

VisualBasic.Som eCommand before giving up on
"SomeComman d" by itself.
In VB.NET projects, the namespace 'Microsoft.Visu alBasic' gets imported
automatically (project imports). You don't need to Type
'Microsoft.Visu alBasic.Strings .Left', only type 'Strings.Left' and so on.
