VB String Split

Hi,

I have one String array like this.....

str(0)=msg1/msg2/msg3/msg4
str(1)=msg1/msg2/msg5
str(2)=msg1/msg2/msg6/msg7
str(3)=msg1/msg2/msg8

here i want to split the string array....and store like this......
i want to store msg1/msg2 in one string........after msg2 i want to store another string ...how can i do it.....anybody know about it....plz tell me.....

thanks in advance...

So would this be correct :

str(n)=msg0/msg1/msg2/msg3/msg4/...msgn-1/msgn

You then want to split up as follows :
msg0/msg1 , msg2/msg3 , msg4/msg5 ... msgn-1/msgn

Christ I must still be asleep this morning.
This is taking way longer than it should.

Anyway, this is almost it :

VB Code:

Private Function split2(ByVal strString As String, ByVal strDelimeter As String) As String()
    Dim strTemp() As String: strTemp = Split(strString, strDelimeter)
    Dim i As Long, n As Long, arrRetVal() As String: ReDim arrRetVal(UBound(strTemp))
    For i = 2 To UBound(strTemp) + 1 Step 2
        arrRetVal(i - 2) = strTemp(i - 2) & "/" & strTemp(i - 1)
    Next
    split2 = arrRetVal
End Function
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
    Dim x As String, y() As String, i As Long
    x = "a/b/c/d/e/f/g/h"
    y = split2(x, "/")
    For i = 0 To UBound(y)
        Debug.Print y(i)
    Next
End Sub

That does the splitting the way you want it, but it leaves in a black space in every second index of the array.
I'll fix that in a few mins.

End result :

VB Code:

Private Function split2(ByVal strString As String, ByVal strDelimeter As String) As String()
    Dim strTemp() As String: strTemp = Split(strString, strDelimeter)
    Dim i As Long, n As Long, arrRetVal() As String: ReDim arrRetVal((UBound(strTemp) - 1) / 2)
    For i = 0 To UBound(strTemp) - 1
        arrRetVal(n) = strTemp(i) & "/" & strTemp(i + 1)
        If i Mod 2 = 0 Then
            n = n + 1
        End If
    Next
    split2 = arrRetVal
End Function
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
    Dim x As String, y() As String, i As Long
    x = "a/b/c/d/e/f/g/h"
    y = split2(x, "/")
    For i = 0 To UBound(y)
        Debug.Print y(i)
    Next
End Sub

why dont you use split function from VB .

something like this :

VB Code:

dim sP() as String
 dim  x as String
 x = "a/b/c/d/"
 sP = Split(x,"/")

that will result :
sP(0) = a
sP(1) = b
and etc...
