Visual Basic .NET strings support the For Each statement, so you can iterate over each individual character as follows: Click here to copy the following block Dim s As String = "ABCDE" Dim c As Char For Each c In s   Console.Write(c & ".")    ' => A.B.C.D.E. Next However, you should bear in mind that For Each loops on string characters aren't optimized. The following solution, that uses the Chars property, is 2-5 times faster: Click here to copy the following block Dim i As Integer For i = 0 To s.Length - 1   Console.Write(s.Chars(i) & ".")    ' => A.B.C.D.E. Next
