title: How do I find out if the first character of a string is a number in VB.NET?
body: <p>How do I check to see if the first character of a string is a number in VB.NET?</p>
  
  <p>I know that the Java way of doing it is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>char c = string.charAt(0);
  isDigit = (c &gt;= '0' &amp;&amp; c &lt;= '9');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But I'm unsure as to how to go about it for VB.NET.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance for any help.</p>
