Android Question Validating EditBox text

[Arf]

Hi,
I want to check certain aspects of the text of an editbox when a button is pressed, but having trouble getting started. The editBox should have a surname and first name entered in the following format:
SurnameFN
So Charles Bronson for example would be BronsonC.

I can't access the individual elements of the editbox like this of course - IsUpper(Editbox.Text[0]), or is there a way i can access the individual elements?

Otherwise I guess I have to copy the string to an array and work it like that. Just would appreciate advice on the 'correct' approach before I get myself into trouble with encoding types and it all gets complicated.

Thanks

EditText.Text returns a regular string. You can use EditText.Text.CharAt(0) to get the first character.

You can validate the text with this code:

Regex.IsMatch("[A-Z][a-z]+[A-Z]", EditText.Text)
