zsKengren 0 Posted December 11, 2010 I am having troubles finding a character within a string The string for an example is - Intel® Core2Duo CPU T5800 @2.00GHz I am trying to delete everything after the "@" or even better yet, save the end of the string to another variable (without the @) Thanks for the Help zsKengren Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kaotkbliss 146 Posted December 11, 2010 (edited) $test="Intel® Core™2Duo CPU T5800 @2.00GHz" $right=StringInStr($test,"@") $trimleft=StringTrimLeft($test,Int($right)) MsgBox(0,"",$trimleft) MsgBox(0,"",$right) *edit* the variable $right tells you how many characters in the @ symbol is after cutting off the first number of characters as returned by $right, what is left is only what is after the @ as displayed by $trimleft it should be very easy to get the script to define the $test variable with whatever data you need.

Realm 18 Posted December 11, 2010 (edited) Hello zsKengren,First, Welcome to the AutoIt Forums I have a couple ideas for you, the second option is a bit rough, and I am sure there is a better way, however this should give you an idea to get started:$string = 'Intel® Core™2Duo CPU T5800 @2.00GHz' ;If you know its going to be exactly @2.00GHz $new_String = StringTrimRight($string,9) MsgBox(0,'String Is:',$new_String) ;If you need to find the @ symbol, and remove it and everything after it. $char_count = 0 While 1 If StringLeft(StringTrimLeft($string,$char_count),1) = '@' Then $new_string = StringLeft($string,$char_count) ExitLoop EndIf $char_count += 1 WEnd MsgBox(0,'String Is:',$new_String)RealmEdit: Kaotkbliss' example is a cleaner approach to my second example which does the same thing. I knew there was a better way, However I did'nt see his while our posts crossed.

meomeo192 0 Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) I have this string: StringInStr Checks if a string contains a given substring. StringInStr ( "string", "substring" [, casesense [, occurrence [, start [, count]]]] ) Parameters string The string to evaluate. substring The substring to search for. casesense [optional] Flag to indicate if the operations should be case sensitive. 0 = not case sensitive, using the user's locale (default) 1 = case sensitive 2 = not case sensitive, using a basic/faster comparison occurrence [optional] Which occurrence of the substring to find in the string. Use a negative occurrence to search from the right side. The default value is 1 (finds first occurrence). start [optional] The starting position of the search. count [optional] The number of characters to search. This effectively limits the search to a portion of the full string. See remarks. I want to separate the substring between "0 = not case sensitive" and "using a basic/faster comparison ", that is this section: 0 = not case sensitive, using the user's locale (default) 1 = case sensitive 2 = not case sensitive, using a basic/faster comparison I used this code to find "0 = not case sensitive" but don't success: ;save first string in file.txt Global $x, $file $file=FileOpen("file.txt", 0) $x=StringInStr($file, "0 = not case sensitive") MsgBox(0,"1",$x) Please help me. Thank all very much. Edited July 20, 2012 by meomeo192 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrewManNH 1,305 Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) Try this. Global $x, $file $file=FileOpen("file.txt", 0) Global $Text = FileRead($file) $x=StringInStr($Text, "0 = not case sensitive") MsgBox(0,"1",$x) EDIT: Unicode and forum tags don't mix.
