Hi does any of you know how to make AutoIt recognise the '#' character in there?

[peter1175]

If it's in a file that is.

Eg.

$file=FileOpen($inputText,0)

$str=FileRead($file)

$arrayOfText=StringSplit($str,"\n")

FileClose($file)

For $i=1 to $arrayOfText[0]

If StringRegExp($arrayOfText[$i],"#",0)==1 Then

ConsoleWrite("It's a hash."&@CRLF)

ExitLoop

EndIf

Next

;Should print 'It's a hash'

maybe you mean stringinstr, not stringregexp

Maybe this.

Local $str = FileRead("Test.txt")

;If StringInStr($str, "#") Then
; or
If StringRegExp($str, "#") Then
    ConsoleWrite("It's a hash." & @CRLF)
EndIf

use string compare it evaluates if two strings are equal.

Local $str = Fileread("test.txt")
If stringcompare($str, "#") = 0 Then ; 0 means the comparison between the two strings are equal if you use StringinStr it will search for occurrences
  ConsoleWrite("It's a hash")
Else
  Exit
  EndIf
