Hi

I have a string with two $ sign in between, like ab$cdefg$eurur. I need to
extract the right most part of the string from just right of the $ sign. How
do I do this?

Thanks

Regards

Try this:

Dim str As String =3D "ab$cdefg$eurur"
str =3D str.Substring(0, str.IndexOf("$", 0))

You may use the Split Method that will split the string based on the
character passed (in this case $)
It returns an array  of string and you may choose the string that you like
(The string to the right of the right $ will have index 2 of the array)

Dim temp() as string = s1.split("$")
Dim result as string = temp(2)

This will get the characters(eurur) after the last $ or return all if there
are no $'s.

Dim str As String = "ab$cdefg$eurur"
str = str.Substring(str.LastIndexOf("$")+1)

Besides all the other suggestions, you may have also:

  Dim S1 As String = "ab$cdefg$eurur"
  Dim S2 As String = S1.Substring(S1.LastIndexOf("$"c) + 1)
