String.Replace With Wildcard (and Use Whatever "wildcard" Is)?
Aug 31, 2010What I want to do is to replace lets say ##test## with Something(test)..I know that I can find ##test## by: (Though don't know whether there's a smarter way)
System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(str, "##Test.*##", "Output")
So basically the problem is to get what the wildcard (.*) is, since thats really what I need to know..
.net - Extracting The Wildcard Value?
Jul 20, 2011I've been having problems extracting the value of a Regex in a String. I have a string with several regex expressions and I need to get the value of each expression's match. The thing is though, it's not returning the last match correctly. For example:
Regex Pattern: I play (S+.*?) and (S+.*?)
String: I play the guitar and the bass The program is returning the value of the first expression as "the guitar" but it's returning the value of the second expression as "the" instead of "the bass".

Bindingsource Find Using A Wildcard?
Feb 5, 2009I'm trying to use the bindingsource.find method to match a datarow column with a user entered text. I know that using BindingSource1.find("columnName", searchString) will work when the user enters the exact string. What I would like to know is how to find a row that is close to the string using a wildcard search... a good example I guess is:dim searchString as string = textbox1.text 'lets say the user enter "se"dim index as integer = myBindingSource.find("columnName", searchString) 'I would like to find the firs record that starts with "se"I can achieve the idea using the bindingsource.filter method but this will interfere with other parts of my application if the bindingsource is changed.
View 6 RepliesHow To Use Wildcard For Attachement File Name
Jun 22, 2010How can I use wildcard/s for the attachment filename. Part of the filename changes but the characters 8 and 9 (counting from the left to right) always present and always either LK or KL. Currently files are PDF type, thus with extension PDF but might be different in the future (this is not important now).

View 19 RepliesSearch For Filename With Wildcard?
Jan 13, 2011searching a directory for a file, and if it doesn't find that file to search again for a similar file and notify the user that a image does exist but for a different revision.
Sub GVC_Photo()
Dim photostr As String = "R:itemphotosp_"
Dim photostr2 As String = "R:itemphotosp_"
Dim photostr3 As String = "R:itemphotosp_"
Dim photostr4 As String = "R:itemphotosp_"
[code]....
This code snippet is used in a program called SyteLine, so some of it may be unfamiliar, but its .net based. The item and revision are fed through from the form, so when the string gets built it might look something like this "R:itemphotosp_22554_B_01.jpg" with "22554" being the item, "B" being the revision, and "01" being the image number. So what I want is if it cannot find a file name with revision B in it, to search for a filename with any revision it it "R:itemphotosp_22554_*_01.jpg", if it finds one to display a message that a non-current photo exists, and if it can't find that, to display a message saying there is no photo.

Tring Search/compare With Wildcard?
Oct 11, 2011I want a string search/compare with wildcard. I'm trying to create a "crypto crossword" application and got most of the code working but the wildcard thing was harder than I thought.
Basically I want the program to compare if "H**LO" is equal to "HELLO" (true). But "HE*" is NOT equal to "HELLO". I tried with regex but the number of wildcard is different each time and in different places so I never managed to make it work.
