Hi,

I have many strings
x= xxxxxxxxxxxxxx[284}
y=yyyyy[0]
z=zzzzzzzzzzzzzz[60]

I need to read the number in [] and save as an integer..

If "]" is always the last char:


Dim s As String = "xxxxxxxx[284]"
Dim p As Integer
Dim i As Integer

p = s.LastIndexOf("["c, s.Length - 2)
i = Integer.Parse(s.Substring(p + 1, s.Length - p - 2))
