String Clean or Strip

[Blacktongue]

Hi:

This is first day with AutoIT and I like it. I am used to winbatch but I cannot find an equivalent function for

$a = strclean($a,"1234567890ABCDEFGBPD","",false,2) ..... this strips all the characters out of the string except for "1234567890ABCDEFGBPD"

How can I do this with AutoIt? I did some searches but could not find it..

Thanks, RB

Make your own UDF (User Defined Function) for it, it's simple. You can have it as your first script

I ended up with something like this:

(the clipboard contains the string to be stripped.)

$a=ClipGet()

$a=StringRegExpReplace($a, "[[:space:]]", "")

MsgBox(0, $a, StringRegExpReplace($a, "[^ 0123456789ABCDEFGHI ]", ""))

that strips out everything but 0123456789ABCDEFGHI and the 'space'...couldnt get that to work in the same function

a UDF was suggested but I havent learned that yet......

$a = "Test string 123 aBc"
$a = strclean($a,"1234567890ABCDEFGBPD")
MsgBox(0,"Result",$a)

Func strclean($a,$B)
    Return StringRegExpReplace($a, "[^" & $b & "]", "")
EndFunc
