How to declare an array in textbox.

[Parul Bagadia]

Hello folks,
I tried lot many methods for displaying an array in textbox, i thought of converting that array in string; so that i can directly assign it to textbox as textbox is also a string; i used Join for that matter...But it was giving very unpredictable result all the time.
I used Debug.print as well; but that was giving output in debug window and not in TextBox..i even tried my hand on Response.Write; but that was giving some kind of error; i dont recollect it;
Can somebody plz tell me how will i display an array in textbox?

well

it does depend on what version of VB you're using

but in most oldie versions and in vba, as you said, the JOIN function should do

try this little example :

dim myArr(1 to 10) as string
dim Str1 as string
dim i as integer
 
for i = 1 to 10
    myarr(i)=i
next
text1.text=join(myarr)

But there are two arguments in join function, first one array and second one delimiter, the meaning of which i had to search first!
Wont it affect the fuctionality, coz if we dont pass any value it must be taking it as garbadge,right?

The delimiter is optional, its default is a blank space. If you dont want it to be there, just do something like:

text1.text = join(myArr, "")

I did as u said but its not working; nothing is getting inserted in Text2.text.. m having VB 6.0

Finally i could display it; but it didnt work with Text2.text=Join(array,""); but when i assigned it to some other string; and later that value from the function and assigned it to Text2.text then only it worked.
Because text2.text is global right?..

its not a variable, its a property.
but yes, you can asign a variable to it.

Thanks. But i still havnt undestood why the join thing didnt work with text2.text?
If we can assign a variable to it; we sould be in position to perform operations on it like Join.

Hi,

JOIN Requires and Array and a Delimitter,
So should work..

Text1.Text = Join(MyArr, ",")

When you are displaying Contents of an Array,
Display it in a ListBox, that will be more Appropriate
OR Make TextBox' MultiLine =True and
like :

List1.Clear
For i= 1 To 100
    List1.AddItem MyArr(i)
    Text1.Text = Text1.Text & vbcrlf & MyArr(i)
Next
