special search string question

[kiboost]

Hi,

I've try different way to do this (stringregex seems the solution but can't find how) but still no solution :

let's say I have a string "word1_word2"

I have a search input to search in thousands of strings, and I would like to search for "word1 word2" and find "word1_word2"

This behavior would work for " ", "_", "-", both in search and in the string.

Any idea ?

I've tried to stringsplit and then add some "(.*?)" in a new string, and regex search but doesn't work.

Global $search = "word1 word2"
Global $chaine = "bbbword1_word2bbb"

    $searcharray = StringSplit($Search," _-",0)
    If @error <> 1 Then
        $newsearch = ""
        For $i = 1 to $searcharray[0]
            $newsearch &= $searcharray[$i]&"(.*?)"
        Next
        $newsearch = "(.*?)" & $newsearch
        ConsoleWrite(@CR&$newsearch)
    EndIf

    Local $j = 0
    For $t = 1 to $searcharray[0]
        ConsoleWrite(@CR&$searcharray[$t])
        If StringRegExp($chaine, $newsearch, 0) Then
            $j += 1
            ConsoleWrite(@CR&"found one occurence!"&@CR)
        EndIf
    Next

hmm it seems to work now, sorry. Can't see how to delete this post anyway.
