Solution 1

One way (another would be to use RegEx, but that might be overkill IMHO) to do this would be to iterate through each character in the string and count the number of vowels.

Are you serious? For starters, forget the pointers; they are not needed.

Pointers are accessible only for unsafe code when you pin an object, which is used in a very special cases. If you cannot figure such a simple thing as working with .NET strings, this topic is way too advanced for you. Just see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.string.aspx[^].
