Hi. I'm coding a program with VB.NET.
But when i use MSN.MyFriendlyName it answer me "[c=1]uNDeRGRouND99[ /c]"
If i don't want [c=1]. How i can remove it?
There is a function in the Messenger Plus Scripting called RemoveFormatCodes, but how can i code this function in VB.NET?

You could write a function which replaces all format codes with an empty string. Although, to make it perfect, you'd have to know every format code, which may be a problem.

Scripting Documentation > MsgPlus::RemoveFormatCodes > Remarks
Through out its existence, Messenger Plus! came up with three different sets of control codes (each born from a specific necessity):

• IRC codes. These are control characters using special ASCII values. They were modeled on mIRC.
  
• IRC codes for contact names. Derived from IRC codes, these codes were added to bypass new filters set for contact names on the Messenger servers.
  
• BBCode. These tags resemble the way formatting is added in HTML documents. They were modeled on phpBB.

Because of the list of tags and their possible combinations would be pretty long and because new control codes may be added in the future, it is recommended that you use this function to filter out every possible code from the strings your script manipulates.

You may also remove the formatting codes _before_ sending them to your program..

Choli's 4 multi-format parser functions may be of help, but I think there's a better way - to do it through regular expression, which vb.net supports (well, that is if you must parse the format codes in your vb.net code)

Thank u!

Sry, i can't translate the VB6 language to VB.NET. I've tryed it. Anyone can translate to VB.NET language the parse_nick?
