You can easily do that using the functions SUBSTRING ,REPLACE etc.

u have a sample code that that i can look at

Member Avatar for Hamrick 
Dim source As String = "CR499"
Dim code As String = source.Substring( 0, 2 )
Dim value As Integer = Convert.ToInt32( source.Substring( 2 ) ) + 1

source has the original string, code has "CR", and value is an integer with the value of 500. Is that what you're trying to do?
