Remove x number of charaters from string. Vb.netIf I've got a string like x = "[00000014] Intel(R) PRO/1000 CT Network
Connection" How do I get x = "Intel(R) PRO/1000 CT Network Connection" I basically want to make a comparison to Intel(R) PRO/1000 CT Network Connection, since the numeric part seems to change per system. Are you asking how to remove some static number of characters from the front
of a string? In that case something like: str = str.Substring(7) Will return characters 8-n, where n is the total number. Of course, if you have less 8 characters in the string to begin with, this would cause an exception - so you have to check for that.
