Replace VB's InStr with a Function

[Vienna]

In the application I am developing, time and speed are very

important.


In the analysis we have conducted, we found that VB's InStr

is considerably slow.


I would like to know if anyone has written a function that

does the same thing as VB's InStr but faster?


Thank you,

and please forward me any information concerning this matter at

All of VB's string functions are slow. However, I heard they improved them in VB6. Are you using version 6 (I would be interested to know if they are still slow)?

I'm using VB 6, and like most things speed has improved some, but it still is quite slow...

If you want real speed, maybe it's an idea to write a dll in C++ with your own functions.... that will speed it up...
