gcue Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 (edited) this line picks out the line that has "full name: blah,blah" in a text file then creates an array for the name $var=StringRegExp($string, "(?:Full Name.\s+)(.*),.(.*)\r\n", 3) If IsArray($dname) Then For $x = 0 To UBound($dname) - 1 ConsoleWrite($dname[$x] & @CRLF) Next endif sometimes "blah,blah" is not seperated by a comma, how can i account account for both cases?

Pain Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 (edited) I guess you are looking for "|" also know as OR. or use [ ... ] (Match any character in the set) Edited December 30, 2008 by Pain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsaltyDS Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 this line picks out the line that has "full name: blah,blah" in a text file then creates an array for the name $var=StringRegExp($string, "(?:Full Name.\s+)(.*),.(.*)\r\n", 3) If IsArray($dname) Then For $x = 0 To UBound($dname) - 1 ConsoleWrite($dname[$x] & @CRLF) Next endif sometimes "blah,blah" is not seperated by a comma, how can i account account for both cases? If no comma, then what would be there? StringRegExp() is no psychic and you will have to specify what you want. Where you have ",." there could be an alternate pattern like ",|\s" which would match either a comma or a single space. Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...
