DoubleMcLovin Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I am trying to have a regex filter to catch (for removal) all "special" nonstandard characters (excluding spaces and decimals). That is to say, [^a-zA-Z\s\.0-9]. I want this to be able to get rid of things such as "!@#$%..." but also (main focus) the characters like ™ and the copyright symbol also. I am having trouble finding a way of doing this without declaring the hex codes for each one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UEZ Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Do you have an example of a text file? It's easier to try regex with an existing text!

DoubleMcLovin Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 That is absolutely brilliant... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GEOSoft Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Not so much. A rather easy regex as a matter of fact. All it says is ignore everything within the [ and ] (group) but all else should be replaced with an empty string. George Question about decompiling code?
