My understanding is that VB.Net does NOT support fixed string lengths. In
the past, in VB6, we could implement a record layout of a sequential input
file by creating a UDT (user-defined type) comprised of fixed length
strings. We are now converting our batch interface COBOL programs to VB.Net
console applications, and would like to know if there is a better way of
accessing the data fields on our sequential input file other than using a
whole bunch of 'Substring' statements.
Thanks,
