When HS3 first came out, I wrote a function to replicate hs.Stringitem.

Place the following code at the bottom of your script. Then change any references in your script from hs.StringItem to just Stringitem.

Function Stringitem(ByVal Str As String, ByVal Index As Integer, Byval Sep As String) As String
Try
    Dim Result() As String = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Split(Str, System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Escape(Sep))
    Return Result(Index-1)
Catch
    Return ""
End Try
End Function

Check out the .net split function. It's nearly identical.

I have a HS2 script I'd like to convert to HS3 but noticed that hs.StringItem no longer exists. Can someone suggest a workaround to the section below which uses it?

For I=0 to UBound(section_items)
        Dim the_date_time As String
                Dim the_name As String
                Dim the_note As String
        the_date_time = hs.StringItem(section_items(I),1,"=")
                the_name = hs.StringItem(section_items(I),2,"=")
        the_note = hs.StringItem(section_items(I),3,"=")
                If the_name = "SUMP OFF" Then
                     dev_string = dev_string & "<img src=\MyImgs\led-red.gif> <small>" & the_name & " @ " & the_date_time & " " & the_note & "</small> <br>"
                 Else
                     dev_string = dev_string & "<img src=\MyImgs\led-green.gif> <small>" & the_name & " @ " & the_date_time & " " & the_note & "</small> <br>"
                End If
        Next 

Thanks,

Robert
