Should be a really easy if statement

[=?Utf-8?B?Sm9uYXRoYW4gQnJvd24=?=]

I need to evaluate the context of a textbox to see if it already contains a
period. if it does then exit sub, else do this code.

If me.txtbox.text contains a period then
exit sub
else
code...
end if

Is there some sort of function for this? Something like a
contains(me.txt box.text,".")

I hope this makes sense.

RE: Should be a really easy if statement

Correction. evaluate the CONTENTS of a textbox, not context.

Do you mean:

Public YourSub (....)

If me.txtbox.text. contains("whats oever") = True Then

Exit Sub

Else

' ...Code

End if

End Sub

Public Sub YourSub(...)

Re: Should be a really easy if statement

Jonathan,

AFAIK is mostly this used to see if something exist in a string

if MyString.IndexO f(0,".") = -1 then 'there is no dot.
(you can concatinate that and find as well the second dot.

RE: Should be a really easy if statement

I'm going to suggest INSTR, merely because it is actually BASIC.
