Summary: – Illustrates using LastIndexOf with Source Code Syntax Example in VB.NET ASP.NET.
*** 2. LastIndexOf Syntax ***
Purpose:
Returns an integer that represents the position of the last occurrence of the
specified number of characters. If you specify startIndex, that specifies
where to start looking. If you specify count, that specifies how many characters to
to search past start. If the string is not found, this method returns -1
Syntax:
stringToSearch.LastIndexOf(stringMatch[, startIndex][,length])
Parameters |
Description |
stringToSearch |
Required – string to be searched
|
stringMatch |
Required – string that you are looking
for in parameter1
|
startIndex |
Optional. specifies where to start looking. Zero-based.
|
length |
Optional. specifies how many characters to
to search past start.
|
Result Data Type |
Description |
integer |
Returns an integer that represents the position
of the last occurrence of the specified number of characters. If
you specify startIndex, that specifies where to start looking.
If you specify count, that specifies how many characters to
to search past start. If the string is not found, this method returns -1

*** 3. LastIndexOf – Quick Example ***
|
Dim strLastIndexOfExample As String = “This is a test string”
TextBox1.Text = strLastIndexOfExample.LastIndexOf(“is”) ‘Returns 5
TextBox2.Text = strLastIndexOfExample.LastIndexOf(“xyz”) ‘Returns -1
