Need some VB help

[nevaeh]

Just started today, but I've gotten really far.

I need to know how to break a string in two.
It's hard to explain but it would be the equivalent to htmls<br>
except in a message box.

I know for a fact I'm doing something wrong. The dims could probably be sorted a more efficient way but I don't know anything about arrays.

        Dim Hallywood As Integer
        Dim Hallygold As Integer
        Dim hallyfood As Integer
        Dim Hallyoppe As Integer
        Dim hallypop As Integer

        Hallygold = txtNumbers.Text * 5
        Hallywood = txtNumbers.Text * 10
        MessageBox.Show("Wood=" + Hallywood.ToString + "Gold=" + Hallygold.ToString)

This would display in a Pop up message box like this:

Wood=xGold=x

I want it to be like this:

Wood=x
Gold=x

Etc..

I would really appreciate the help!

\n is a character for new line. Put it in a string where you want to break it like for example "Apples\nBananas" would output:
Apples
Bananas

If \n doesnt work, try Environment.NewLine.

Or vbCrlf, if that's still around :v:

I always use vbCrLf, it will work.
(also, you might want to use & instead of +, makes it easier to see if you're handling strings or numbers)
