check if a string contains another string

[rbreidenstein]

I want to be able to say this:

if stringA contains stringB then
do something
else
do something different
end if



stinga will have many words in it and stringb may have one or many.

Hi, maybe this is just me sticking my nose in, but would it not be a better idea to use a 'Regular Expression' When searching for strings like this.

Well, there is always more than one solution for the same task/problem but i beleive that "contains" method does good job here ... good to know that M$ has implemented many useful things like this one in the new version of vb.net ... thanks Billy
