Are you serious? This is such a beginner-level question and you have been around these forums for some time now. I find it hard to believe that you do not know how to do this. Still. There are several ways to do this. You could use the String.Concat() method, look up the documentation. You could use a StringBuilder instance with the Append() method, again, look up the documentation. You could simply use the & operator or the + operator, LUTD. There are many, many more ways but I think these are the most common.

There are different ways; The simplest is;

Dim x As String = "Fred"
Dim y As String = "Smith"
Dim z As String
z = x + "/" + y

or

    Dim x As String = "Fred"
    Dim y As String = "Smith"
    Dim z As String
    z = x & "/" & y

If you look up the string class in the documentation, there are others ways to do this also; including, concat, join. You can also use a stringbuilder like;

    Dim newString As New System.Text.StringBuilder
    newString.Append(x)
    newString.Append("/")
    newString.Append(y)

    Debug.WriteLine(newString)

VB.NET has the almighty & operator for problems like this. It it too bad there are no books nor on-line documentation to tell you that. :)
