Hello & Thanks ;
Newbie says :
I spent hours searching for docs on syntax of this statement :
variable = TextBox2.Lines(i)
this part
TextBox2.Lines(i)
There are plenty of docs for C# , but zero so far for .vb in vb,net .
Can someone Please aim me at a site or book that will show syntax and examples . Someone made reference to site where reader cab just click on a Button to switch between C# and .vb syntax Examples .
Any one know where that is ?
Thanks for your Help...
If you already found the TextBox class (e.g. https://www.bing.com/search?q=TextBox+class, then select “TextBox Class (System.Windows.Forms)”, because your application is Forms). You will achieve https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.windows.forms.textbox.
Then click “Properties” on right side. You will see the full list of members, including Lines, with an example.
But if you click “Properties” on left side, you will only see the description of non-inherited members, which does not include Lines.
Then you will see that Lines is an array; Lines(n) means the nth line; the first line is Lines(0).
Thanks ;
