String manipulation

General

What third party string manipulation classes should I use, if any? How should I go about remove every instance of " " (I think they are called whitespaces) in a string?

Thanks

dim result as string result = replace(aString, " ")

Check the docs.

replaceAll changes all instances

I have my M_String module available at my web site with tons of string manipulation code.

You can use ReplaceAll to remove spaces:

result = aString.ReplaceAll( " ", "" )

If you truly mean any whitespace (spaces, tabs, or newlines), you’re better off using a regular expression:

dim rx as new RegEx
rx.SearchPattern = "\\s"
rx.Options.ReplaceAllMatches = true

result = rx.Replace( aString )
