Hey Everyone,

             I am having a problem getting this regex to work.  I downloaded and installed Expresso to help make and test the search expression. Using Expresso this pattern pulls the whole line of text.  (?m)^(\bPID\b|\bGT1\b).*    Any line that begins with PID or GT1   So I am thinking great just put that into my AutoIt script and good to go....But in AutoIt it is only pulling just the string   PID or GT1 not the whole line of text.

$aResults = StringRegExp($sFile, "(?m)^(\bPID\b|\bGT1\b).*", 3)

Any help would be great Thank you

xcaliber13,

This seems to work for me:

#include <Array.au3>

$sText = "PID-Line 1" & @CRLF & _
         "Fred-Line 2" & @CRLF & _
         "GT1-Line 3" & @CRLF & _
         "Fred-Line 4"

$aRet = StringRegExp($sText, "(?m)^(PID.*|GT1.*)$", 3)

_ArrayDisplay($aRet, "", Default, 8)

mikeII,

Thank you!  Ya got me going in the right direction.  Here is what is working. It pulls the complete line if it begins with PID or GT1

$aResults = StringRegExp($sFile, "(?m)^(\bPID\b.*|\bGT1\b.*)", 3)

Again Thank you
