Do you want to convert client side javascript into VB.NET?

Your idea will not work.

Actually. i am working on conversion of asp code to vb.net.
i do not know what is the equivalent of eval function in vb.net?
In case u know, then please help me....

That's what i suspected, he's treating asp.net as another client script

You *really* need to get hold of a beginner's guide to ASP.NET...

ASP / VBScript bears almost no relationship to ASP.NET / VB.NET

Without this, you're going to come up against many more fundamental
differences than the one you're currently having trouble with...

Even if possible (I believe you can call the J# assembly to do so, this
would also dable by doing dynamic code compilation though some host likely
won"t allow this) it would be IMO interesting to tell what you are trying to
do.

My personal preference would be to use an array...

.... And assuming what you want is to port client side code to server side
(is this what you are doing ?). document.all obviously won't work server
side, you'll have to use the approporiate control to get the value server
side...

I only want to know is there any function in vb.net which has the same
functionality as the eval function????

If yes, then please tell me....

This str1= (eval("strCallsDef" +
document.all("lstPeriodType1").value)) is not ASP

This is a JavaScript.

So the short answer is no.

Actually i realized you one can use Javascript as script language in asp
files instead of default vbscript

You can also use VBScript as client-side scripting in classic ASP if you
don't care about alienating the non-IE community...

I think so, however the document.all("lstPeriodType1").value is
something from the client-side scripting, which is a bit different

Definitely agree, but wasn't clear what was going on
