Simple example of validating a phone number:

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
      ' Invalid phone number
     'Dim strPhone As String = "123456789"

    ' valid phone number
    Dim strPhone As String = "(123) 456-7890"
    Dim regexp As New Regex(("^\(?\d{3}\)?\s|-\d{3}-\d{4}$"))

     If regexp.IsMatch(strPhone) Then
           MsgBox("Valid Phone Number")
    Else
          MsgBox("Invalid Phone Number")
   End If

End Sub

I was recently putting together some proof of concept for a customer and realized that I hadn't posted one of the common Regular Expressions that I had been using.

Validating a Zip Code:

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        ' Invalid Zip code
        'Dim strZip As String = "AB123"

        ' valid Zip Code
       Dim strZip As String = "03110"

      Dim regexp As New Regex(("^\d{5}$"))
    
      If regexp.IsMatch(strZip) Then
                   MsgBox("Zip Code")
     Else
                  MsgBox("No zip match")
     End If

End Sub

A couple of weeks ago I was given a SmartPhone as part of the Smartphone Developer Kit. What an incredibly cool gadget for developers. Well I am just getting a chance to really smart playing with it and will post more info as I get further along. Due to my incredibly advanced and keen sense of development style after about 20 minutes I ended up needing to reset the phone. Ok - maybe not such a great development style.

I ran across the following site that talks about resetting the phone and basically breaks down into the following steps:
