string process

i have a string, i want to add "\u" for each 4 charachters of the string, when i write a for loop, it refuses adding \u, i have to add @\u for example: i have the strng 541236589632 i want to transfer it to \u5412\u3658\u9632 how can i do this on c# application

Thanks alot Hamody

I assuming you are having problems with the escape character I would define the string that you are adding as follows: private const string mystring = @"\u"; This tells the compiler to take the string litterally and not use the slash as an escape character.

If you post your code and I will take a look at it then. Please also show input and output for your code and the desired output. I am not 100% sure what you are having a problem with otherwise.

string ResultMessage=""; string varMessage; varMessage = MMOUTBOUND_DGV.Rows[0].Cells[2].Value.ToString(); for (int k = 0; k <= varMessage.Length - 1; k++) { ResultMessage = ResultMessage + "\u" + varMessage.Substring(k, 4); k = k + 3; } MessageBox.Show("ResultMessage ");

Thanks alot Hamody

First may i sugest in the for loop for (int k = 0; k <= varMessage.Length - 1; k=k+4) and eliminate the k=k=3; As suggested before your code must be ResultMessage = ResultMessage + @"\u" + varMessage.Substring(k, 4);

OK, you have a choice when escape characters are wanted as literal in strings: you need to change + "\u" + to + @"\u" + or + "\\u" +

helloz, am not using an escape characters, i want to change from the ASCII code, so for example: when i write in code: messagebox.show("\u0064"); it will show me the character 'd' on the message that appear, so i can't use '\\u' instead of using '\u' now what can i so to solve this problem :doh:

Thanks alot Hamody

Hey guys, i got the solution which is: private string HexAsciiConvert(string hex) { StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(); for (int i = 0; i <= hex.Length - 4; i += 4) { sb.Append(Convert.ToString(Convert.ToChar(Int32.Parse(hex.Substring(i, 4), System.Globalization.NumberStyles.HexNumber)))); } return sb.ToString(); } enjoy and thanks to all of u :rose:

Thanks alot Hamody
