Well this a newbie question ehhe, but I havent had time to research on it so I gonna need some help if you guys got time

how do we use string, like my admin bot I use text boxes and for what I hear strings are better.

this is basically what the program does right now it checks a textbox to see if its empty, if its not empty then it will do a function, now I kindna know how I will convert an item to a string I just dont know how I would check for the string to be empty lol

aigh you can critized me lol but please also give me some tips

now, seeing as how im also a noob, this may not be right...but i think it could be...

instead of using

Code: Select all

If Text1.Text = "0" Then
MsgBox "Loco is geh"
End If

try using

Code: Select all

If jew = "0" Then
MsgBox "Loco is geh"
End If

and instead of of using the text boxes to put the information, use the strings

Code: Select all

Dim jew As String

then, when you would normally put Text1.Text to store, lets say, the room title

Code: Select all

jew = "Room Title"
'instead of
Text1.Text = "Room Title"

now, i think thats right, if it made any lick of sense...

I didn't get what you want do to but you can compare your string variable with vbnullstring if is equal that mean there is nothing in that string.

do you know how is this>>> Dim mystring as string and Dim mystrings() as string

the different between mystring and mystrings is mystrings is an array of string can be resized progammatically(dynamically).

Wait dont get me confuse

can I do this

Code: Select all

If nameofstring = "o" then
do something
end if

sure

lol.....how is licking equated with measuring sence..

wiki it...

ghost is correct, and namo has showen an array of strings, just like an array of controls (like i used in trigger bot) but the anwser for locohacker is what ghost gave, instead of using a resouce hungry control (textbox) on your form you would use a string instead, thus elliminating the need for a textbox,

You would use a string in a function, just like you already have in ALL of your source codes locohacker, or you can declare a global string and then you can use that string in whole of your project including your modules ect...

asking such questions locohacker makes thinks you dont even know how your own codes work, I think once you have an understanding how your codes work then you can tweak them for better proformance and become a better programmer

If nameofstring = "o" then
do something
end if

you can do that locohacker but like namomachine said, its better to use VbNullstring because its faster

If nameofstring = VbNullstring then
do something
end if

ZMG NOWAY!
