	<OutAttribute> ByRef result As Partition
) As Boolean

public:

The string to parse.

result  Partition

When this method returns, contains the result of successfully parsing s, or an undefined value on failure.

Return Value

Implements

The input must use the format "size", "label:size", "size[fs]" or "label:size[fs]", where "label" is the volume label, "size" is a value using multiple-byte units, and "fs" is the name of a supported file system such as "FAT32" or "NTFS". Examples are "Windows:128GB" and "Data:16GB[FAT32]"

Instead of an explicit size, you can use "*" for the size to indicate the partition should be extended to fill the remaining space on the disk. For example, "Windows:*".

Certain volume labels are treated specially, and can be used to create special partition types. "System" creates a partition with PartitionTypeSystem, "MSR" with PartitionTypeMsr, and "WinRE" and "Recovery" with PartitionTypeUtility. This check is case insensitive, and all other volume labels create a partition with PartitionTypeNormal.
