String Reversal

I've see code posted before that reverses either a string or a file. Does anyone have this code on hand? Thanks in advance.

The easiest way to reverse a string that I know of...

Create a project and place a command button and a text box on the form.

Paste the following code into the form's code window, run the project, type some text into the text box, and then click the command button.

Code:

---

Option Explicit

Private Function ReverseString(sStringIn As String) As String
    Dim nCounter As Integer
   
    For nCounter = 1 To Len(sStringIn)
        ReverseString = Mid$(sStringIn, nCounter, 1) & ReverseString
    Next nCounter
End Function


Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Text1 = ReverseString(Text1)
End Sub

Unless you are using VB6.0, of course, which has a string reverse function built in, called StrReverse. This is implemented in the same manner:

Code:

---

    Text1 = StrReverse(Text1)

Of interest if you are using vb5, but the following code into a Textbox change event.

Private Text.Change()

Text = ucase(Text)

Reverses the text string, strange but true. :)
