You can use one of Vb's many string manipulation functions

Have a look at the mid function,

Why are you sending this data? There may be an easier way what is it?

If you read from a file it's even easier.

You don't need to read the file into a text box.
And don't read the whole file at once ! What if the file is 1 GByte (or even bigger) ?

If you search in the CodeBank you will find exmples on this.
I recomend this one:
Visual Basic - Send File With Winsock

And I also recoment the code I posted in that thread, but that's up to you...
