    [VB6] Fast GetStringBetween

    Fastest? Well I'd like to say it is as some people claim it to be, but anything is possible

    Here it is:

    Code:
    Public Function GetStringBetween(Main As String, start As String, Finish As String, Optional Index As Long = 1) As String
    On Error Resume Next
        GetStringBetween = Split(Split(Main, start, Index + 1)(Index), Finish, 2)(0)
    End Function
    An example of using this to grab NP on hand would be:

    lblNP.Caption = GetStringBetween(HTML, "NP: <a id='npanchor' href=""(you need an account to see links)"">", "</a>")

    PS: If you have to use quotation marks in your code, put two like how I did. Otherwise it not work.
    (you need an account to see links)
    (you need an account to see links)(you need an account to see links)

    Joe I'm pretty sure using Mid$ (even better MidB$) is faster than using Split, especially because the Delimiter parameter is a variant and variants are the slowest data types.
