I have a textbox as and input field for a SQL database search. If the user inputs a full name (first, "space", last name) I want to split this string into two values. Is there an easy way to do this
I have a string.isindex searching for a space and if there is then I need to split the two values into two different variables.
Thanks for the information.
Splitting a string

try the string split function:
dim theSplitSeperator() as Char = { ' ' }
dim theStringSplit() as string = theInputString.Split(theSplitSeperator)

You can use string's Split() method, like in:
Dim parts() As String = TextBox1.Text.Split(New Char() {" "c})If there isn't any spaces in the textbox's text, the returned array will only contain one item. And if you need to split the string at the first space only, use:
Dim parts() As String = TextBox1.Text.Split(New Char() {" "c}, 2)The second parameter will instruct the function to return two items maximum.
