 |
|
Hello,
my question is if I have a name of a person say John Doe in a listbox, how can I split the name so I can put John in text1 and Doe in text2.
Any help would be great. THANXS!

Hi,
If the names are separated by a space the easiest way would be to use split
eg
| Code: |
Dim strNames() as String
strNames = Split(ListBox.List(1)," ")
Text1.text = strNames(0)
Text2.text = strNames(1)
|
Would split the name in the 2nd entry of ListBox into the two text boxes
Regards
Doug

Thanks for your help. After your reply I found another code to split list text and It's a little different than yours.
| Code: |
Dim arrTmp
arrTmp = Split(list1.List(list1.ListIndex))
Text1.Text = arrTmp(0)
Text2.Text = arrTmp(1)
if Ubound(arrTmp)>0 then
Text2.Text = arrTmp(Ubound(arrTmp))
End If
|
What is the difference? (If any).
