arrays of integers

[Guest]

Hey all,

I have an array of numbers. What's the best way to get those numbers into
one text field semicolon delimited?

thanks ,

Create a loop that will read through all of the items in the array and add
the item, plus the comma, to a stringbuilder object.

Dim retString As New StringBuilder

For intcounter As Integer = 0 To arrInts.Length - 2

retString.Append(arrInts(intcounter) & ", ")

Next

thanks very much.

retString.Append(arrInts(intcounter) & ", ")

Alternatively, you can use the Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings.Join function.
Something like the following: -

Dim test() As Integer = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
Dim result As String = Join(ArrayList.Adapter(test).ToArray(), ";")

Unfortunately you can't pass an array of value types directly to a parameter
expecting an array of objects, hence the use of the ArrayList Adapter
method.

Don't forget to add the last item here... ;-).

Me and array counting have never gotten along. You would think that after
this long, I could get it right. Alas, no such luck. ;-)
