Bowmore Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 How do I search for specific word in string? Can someone give me example? Another method, is to use StringRegExp() which will only match complete words. StringRegExp offers more flexibility than StringInStr but is slower. Which method you use depends on exactly what you require to find. #include <array.au3> Dim $result = StringRegExp("I love rock n roll, put another dime in the juke-box baby.", "\banother\b") If $result = 0 Then MsgBox(0,"","Not Found") Else MsgBox(0,"","Found") EndIF ;More examples for checking if one of several words is present demonstating different StringRegExp options $result1 = StringRegExp("I love rock n roll, put another dime in the juke-box baby.", "\b(the|Jazz|juke|box|n)\b",1) _ArrayDisplay($result1,"Return form StringRegExp() with option 1") $result2 = StringRegExp("I love rock n roll, put another dime in the juke-box baby.", "\b(the|Jazz|juke|box|n)\b",2) _ArrayDisplay($result2, "Return form StringRegExp() with option 2") $result3 = StringRegExp("I love rock n roll, put another dime in the juke-box baby.", "\b(the|Jazz|juke|box|n)\b",3) _ArrayDisplay($result3, "Return form StringRegExp() with option 3") "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the universe trying to build bigger and better idiots. So far, the universe is winning."- Rick Cook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
