string problem - please help

[Tiraman :-\)]

hi,

i have a little problem to concat a string with some "," sign.

this is my code:

Dim mystring as string = ""
for i=1 to 3
mystring = mystring & "," & otherstring
next i

and i m getting the result like this

"a,b,c,"

and with numbers i m getting this result

",1,2,3"

how can i make it "a,b,c" and "1,2,3" ?

Thanks.

maybe something like this:

dim mystring as string = ""
for i=1 to 3
if len(mystring) = 0 then
mystring = Cstr(i)
else
mystring = mystring & ", " & CStr(i)
end if
next i

this will give you 1,2,3

hope this helps..
Imran.

Here's one way. Note that the function doesn't do any checking or trimming,
so it will happily append empty strings or strings containing nothing but
white space. Also note that if you're going to do very many of these string
concatenations, you should use a StringBuilder instead.

Function AppendCommaDelimitedValue(ByVal s As String, ByVal appendValue
As String) As String
If s.Length = 0 Then
s = appendValue
Else
s = s & "," & appendValue
End If
Return s
End Function

Tiraman,
A couple of other possiblities:

Dim mystring as string = "" Dim delim as string for i=1 to 3
mystring = mystring & delim & otherstring delim = "," next i

Dim strings(2) As String
strings(0) = otherstring1
strings(1) = otherstring2
strings(2) = otherstring3

mystring = String.Join(",", strings)

I prefer String.Join when my strings are already in an array, other wise I
use the first one.

Hope this helps
Jay

Get that a,b,c result with that code.

I was searching how you did that, however without any result.
When I use the codes samples others provided to you it is of course no
problem even not doing it like this (I thought the sample Herfried showed
you)

\\\
mystring = "a"
for i = 2 to 3
mystring = "," & chrw(i+96)
next
///
However the way you did it I could not succeed.

Hi

Tiraman, in my opinion would the sample you gave never give the result you
said, therefore it was extra difficult to help you because I could not get
the problem. (You got answers however they where not telling why the one was
different from the other one).

However no problem of course.
