VB - Assigning Strings in an Array

Question

I am trying to assign values to the strings in a comma separated string. See incorrect code below.

Dim newArray As String() = "M2-1_,IR,Pass,499V,>10G,5.0s"
results = Split(newArray, ",", -1, vbBinaryCompare)
Dim results1 As String = newArray(0)
Dim results2 As String = newArray(1)
Dim results3 As String = newArray(2)
ListBox1.Items.Add(results1)
ListBox1.Items.Add(results2)
ListBox1.Items.Add(results3)

My current results are:

M    
2    
-

I would like the results:

M2-1_
IR
Pass

Thanks!!!!!

If you want just the first 3:

    Dim newArray As String = "M2 - 1_,IR,Pass,499V,>10G,5.0s"
    ListBox1.Items.AddRange(newArray.Split(",").Take(3).ToArray)

If you want them all:

    Dim newArray As String = "M2 - 1_,IR,Pass,499V,>10G,5.0s"
    ListBox1.Items.AddRange(newArray.Split(","))

  Dim newArray = "M2-1_,IR,Pass,499V,>10G,5.0s"
  Dim results() As String = newArray.Split(",")
  ListBox1.Items.Add(results1(0))
  ListBox1.Items.Add(results2(1))
  ListBox1.Items.Add(results3(2))

Your code works if you index into the results array when adding to the ListBox.

Dim newArray As String = "M2-1_,IR,Pass,499V,>10G,5.0s"
Dim results() = Split(newArray, ",", -1, vbBinaryCompare)
ListBox1.Items.Add(results(0))
ListBox1.Items.Add(results(1))
ListBox1.Items.Add(results(2))
