Code:
Function Parse(ByVal Data As String, ByVal Left As String, ByVal Right As String) As String
If Dat*****ntains(Left) AndAlso Dat*****ntains(Right) Then
Return Data.Substring(Data.IndexOf(Left) + Left.Length, Data.IndexOf(Right) - Data.IndexOf(Left) - Left.Length)
Else
Return String.Empty

My String Manipulation Tutorial

[php]
Dim s As String = "This is the string sample"
S = S.Substring(19)
[/php]
That will grab the the 5th word (which is 19 characters in)
[php]
label1.text = s
[/php]
Now label1.text says "Sample"
Hope that helps, string manipulation is rather easy, and very effective.
Read the tut, it does through indexing for specific words, etc.
If you know the word you are trying to parse, you can use .
[php]
Dim currentSentence As String = "Sample Test"
Dim splitSentence() As String = currentSentence.Split(" "c)
For Each s As String In splitSentence
If s.Contains("test") Then MsgBox("Found Test")
Next
[/php]
