My name is Andrew Sutton, aka Shandy.

I am currently living and working in the UK as a software developer. This blog contains mainly IT related issues.

I was a Microsoft VB MVP for a couple of years (Apr 2004-Mar 2006) and was a vbCityLeader between April 2003 and June 2007.

VB.Classic

I am in the process of writing a VB.Classic application that will convert VB Code into HTML code so that it is nicely formatted. E.g.

Private Function FindNumberOfUniqueCharactersInString(ByVal strVvText As String _
                                                     , ByVal blnVvCaseSensitive As Boolean _
                                                     ) As Integer
    Dim intLvIndex As Integer
    Dim intLvCount As Integer: intLvCount = 1
    strVvText = IIf(blnVvCaseSensitive, strVvText, UCase$(strVvText))
    For intLvIndex = 2 To Len(strVvText)
        If InStr(Left(strVvText, intLvIndex - 1) _
                , Mid(strVvText, intLvIndex, 1) _
                ) = 0 Then
            intLvCount = intLvCount + 1
        End If
    Next
    FindNumberOfUniqueCharactersInString = intLvCount
End Function

becomes

Private Function FindNumberOfUniqueCharactersInString(ByVal strVvText As String _
                                                     , ByVal blnVvCaseSensitive As Boolean _
                                                     ) As Integer
    Dim intLvIndex As Integer
    Dim intLvCount As Integer: intLvCount = 1
    strVvText = IIf(blnVvCaseSensitive, strVvText, UCase$(strVvText))
    For intLvIndex = 2 To Len(strVvText)
        If InStr(Left(strVvText, intLvIndex - 1) _
                , Mid(strVvText, intLvIndex, 1) _
                ) = 0 Then
            intLvCount = intLvCount + 1
        End If
    Next
    FindNumberOfUniqueCharactersInString = intLvCount
End Function

When I have completed the application I will post it at vbCity. As you can see from the above code (created using my application) the basics are working. I just need to allow the application to know about more reserved words, perform more testing, and correct any bugs the testing shows up and then it will be ready.
