Take a string and calculate a Number that only that String has! Pretty Fast and can do files with a little editing of the code! This is a very well written out code and is pretty simple if you know most of the Visual Basic Commands! Thank You and please Visit https://vbcode.8m.com
Inputs
String
Assumes
The basics of Math and the Commands For Visual Basic
Code Returns
32-Bit CRC Code of the inputed String
Side Effects
None That i know of
