How do you get a specific letter from a word?
For example, in English, I would say:
Get the fifth letter from the word "Computer"
Then the letter 'u' will be returned. (C-O-M-P-U-..., 'u' is the fifth letter)
How do you 'translate' this sentence into VB.net? Thanks!

Use the Chars indexer property of the string:
Dim s As String = "Computer"
Console.WriteLi ne (s.Chars(4)) 'Index is zero based

Hi Jeff
this is one possible way
Dim strWoord As String = "COMPUTER"
Dim strLetter As String
Dim intLetter As Integer
strLetter = InputBox("Give the ... letter")
If strLetter.Lengt h > 0 AndAlso IsNumeric(strLe tter) Then
intLetter = CInt(strLetter)
If intLetter > strWoord.Length Then
MsgBox("The word isn't this long")
Else
MsgBox("The letter is " & Mid(strWoord, intLetter, 1))
End If
End If

Nice! I've been using Mid() but that looks better.

Take a look at the documentation:
'GetChar' gets a single character from a string. 'Mid' can be used to
get more than one character.

dim MyFiftLetter as String = "Computer".subs tring(4,1)
I hope this makes it more complete

Gentlemen,
I'm running into a problem whilst testing the parsing of a language I've
created with TPG . It seems that for some reason, TPG balks when I try
to parse an expression whose first letter is 't' (or, in fact, at any
time when 't' is at the beginning of a token). This doesn't happen with
any other letter (as far as I know), nor if the 'T' is capitalised.
My grammar looks like this:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
