在 VB.Net 中过滤字符串

Question

I am awful and VB.Net, so I am kind of lost what to do with this string to filter.

I have a string: "294.00" & vbCrLf & "$10,831.99" & vbCrLf & "191 lbs." & vbCrLf & "15,929 lbs." "294.00" & vbCrLf & "$10,831.99" & vbCrLf & "191 lbs." & vbCrLf & "15,929 lbs."

And basically, I need to grab the second numeric value: 10,831.99 and filter the rest of the junk out.

I am not sure how to go about this. Possibly REGEX( which I have no idea how to use in VB.NET) or maybe some other build in functionality from the standard LIB?

I have tried: myString.Split(Environment.NewLine)(0).ToString()

But I only get the first numeric value: 294.00 which is the incorrect one.

any input or advice/tips would be appreciated! Thanks

you already solved your problem, let me explain.

this function myString.Split returns an array, you can access each element of the array using the index [ the (0) means you are accessing the string at the 0 position ]. So, if you want the second value you can do it just like this:

myString.Split(Environment.NewLine)(1).ToString()
