Prop3=19,2

i need to get the link on it's own without the rest of the info

Here's the code i'm using to try get it but something's wrong

Dim EnterKey As String = ChrW(Keys.Enter)
                    If String.Compare(fUrl.Substring(0, fUrl.Length), EnterKey) Then
                        
                        i = fUrl.IndexOf(CInt(Val(EnterKey)))
                        If i <> -1 Then
                            fUrl = fUrl.Substring(0, i)
                        End If

But instead of getting me the link on it's own, it gives me this instead

did you try to do a replace?

fUrl.Replace(chr(13), String.Empty)

[redmo]

nope, sorry, that doesn't remove anything from the string at all

here's an image of whats goin on, is there anyway i can reproduce those squares instead of trying to capture the enter char?

[kleinma]

its likely a chr 10 and 13 (carriage return and line feed)

try this

Dim MyString As String = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Split("URL STRING HERE", Environment.NewLine)(0)

of course implement a little error handling incase the URL string is not in the expected format.

Cool, thanks that worked no problems. it was even silly for me to forget line feed, i was capturing the carraige return, but not the line feed. Thanks for the code m8
