hello i am new to vb.net 2003 i am trying to do a string reverse by reversing the string myself but i don't understand how to make the coding work for me. here is an example of what i want to happen.

i want a user to be able to type what he/she wants and the outcome is reversed.
ex:
input:
textbox1: "abc123def"
command button(reverse string)
outcome:
textbox2: "fedthree two one cba"

You want to do it yourself without using strrev function???

I've actually got the same problem and I'll explain it a little more:


I have to create a Windows application that contains a single top-level form with two textboxes on it, on positioned above the other. As each character is entered into the upper textbox, the string that has been entered into the upper textbox must appear in the lower textbox, but in reverse. If the input field contains any digits (0 through 9), each such digit must be translated into its corresponding English name reading in correct left-to-right order, followed by a space character. For example, if the string that has been entered into the upper textbox is “abc123def” the string displayed in the lower textbox must be “fedThree Two One cba” I can't use of any string reversal functions that are included so I'm guessing I have to do a recursive reversal?

hi there.. you can do it in a simple way.. just use the function strrev to reverse the string, and after that just change the value of any number to his correspondend word...

something like:
input: abc123def
reverse: fed321cba
changing to words: something like if string.contains("1") then
string.replace("1","One ") and do it for every number...
