Is it possible to use regex with Range.Find.Text or set the Word.Range according to a regex in word automation? I just want to find strings that match a regular expression an manipulate them.
Say I have a List(Of Tag) with Tag being an object. One member of Tag, Tag.Description, is a string, and I want to make a comma-separated concatenation of the Description members.Is there an easier way to do this than to read the Description members into a List(Of String) and then use the Join function?
I am working on a UDP Client/Server, and currently i have them sending back and forth strings, which i convert to bytes, and then open the bytes to read. I want to now send an Object instead of those strings, which includes multiple unsigned integers and strings.
I have a list of strings. For each string in that list, I want to prepend another string. I wrote a method to do it, but I was wondering if there was something already in .NET I could use to do this. It seems like something that could be built in, but I was not able to find anything.
Here is the method I wrote:
Private Function PrependToAllInList(ByRef inputList As List(Of String), ByRef prependString As String) As List(Of String) Dim returnList As List(Of String) = New List(Of String) For Each inputString As String In inputList returnList.Add(String.Format("{0}{1}", prependString, inputString))
[code].....
It works, but I would rather use built in functions whenever possible.
I have been looking for examples to find the string between two strings. This top one works fine;
Public Sub ReadData(ByRef keywordStart As String, ByRef keywordEnd As String, ByVal filename As String) Using reader = New StreamReader(filename)
[Code].....
Now the first one is fine - Ext_Volume is result of the string between the strings <Volume> and </Volume>. <Volume> and </Volume> are unique so this is straight forward.
However the second one - "^FDExp:" is unique, but "^FS" is not unique. There are occurances of "^FS" before and after "^FDExp:".
How do I get the string to search AFTER the occurrence, not before etc?
Is there an easy way to find a certain string within a string and then return the strings that you find as an array?I have written this:
Public Function FindStrings(ByVal strSourceString As String, ByVal strStartString As String, ByVal strEndString As String) As String() Dim StringStartposition As Integer Dim StringEndPosition As Integer Dim Currentposition As Integer = 1
I have this string called time. It's value is in this format: HH:MM:SS The numbers change, but the format stays the same. I want to separtate the code into 3 strings Hour, Minutes, Seconds.
I have a DataGridView that has some columns with dates. It binds to an in-memory Datatable which gets loaded from an string array of data passed back from the backend Some of the rows returned have nulls for the date columns. Solution 1: If I define the Date column in the DataTable as "string" I can easily convert those nulls to empty strings and display it in the grid as empty strings (desired results). However, if the user clicks on the date column header to sort by date, it doesn't order the rows as you want. You get a purely string sort order. Not acceptable
Here's the weird problem I am trying to solve but cannot get my mind around it. In a text box 1, the user enters 2 or more strings separated by comma. then in text box 2, the user enter 1 or more strings separated by comma. The output then puts the strings from text box 2 between the strings in text box 1
Example:
TextBox1 = visual basic, java, perl TextBox2 = is better, compared to
I'm trying to create a regex which will match either one of the following [code] This regex is supposed to return all and any form of the function that is used.If match string were - FVAL(A,"B")+5 then match group should be FVAL(A,"B")
I can get it to work in VB.NET but not C#. I can't figure out why it works in one but not the other.
[Code]...
As far as I can tell the patterns are identical in both languages with escaping. When I run the VB code I get a match. When I run the C# code I get nothing.
I have just coded the below regular expression. I have a mini rich text editor on a web page (very similar to the one I am using to post this question) and I want to make use of a double asterisk to indicate which words/phrases should be wrapped in a strong tag. The aim is to allow the user to add pre-defined HTML elements without actually having to submit HTML. [code...]
Maybe I am over-optimising this, but I want to know if this can be made more efficient?
It is a little like a search and replace, I want to replace any string that contains any substring in parentheses with the same string but the words in parentheses colored RED: Eg
Take this text in TextBox1:
"The Prime Minister (that idiot from Scotland) made a speech today"
and convert to this text in RichTextBox1:
"The Prime Minister (that idiot from Scotland) made a speech today"
I am trying to use regular expression for extracting data from web page. but everytime i change the URL i need to change my regular expression for URL.
I have the following function that I am using to remove the characters �4 and nulls from my xmlString but I can't find what do I need to change to avoid removing the from my ending tags. This is what I get when I run this function
I have a textbox which takes as input the email address. Do you have regular expression validator in vb.net so that I can check if '@' is present or not in the string
I have a string (can be anything) and somewhere in the middle of the string there's a filename with the extension 'txt'. The filename can basically be anything, and any filename is correct, but with a certain exception.
If the filename ends with .part<number>.txt, the <number> can only be one of the following, 1, 01, 001, 0001.
So I can get the URL value as the only Match from the Regular expression - but I don't understand enough about them (yet) to do this. I have seen RegEx examples that will parse any INI file and get the Name, Value Pairs I just want to get the URL value only from a file no matter what else it contains. My aim is to have something like this:
Dim _pattern As New Text.RegularExpressions.Regex("RegEx") Dim _url As String = _pattern.Match(iniContentString).Value
It seems simple but I cannot seem to create a specific case RegEx where I want everything from "URL=" to the vbCrLf at the End to be my "Match". I have refered to Regular-Expressions.info which has been a help before but still cannot get this simple example to work.
I'm attempting to build a function that will return a regex that is dynamically created.The regex to create will be a range check between two numbers. So far I've got something similar to this (not finished as yet).Is this approach valid, or is there an easier way that I'm overlooking?
Public Shared Function Range(ByVal Minimum As Integer, ByVal Maximum As Integer) As String Return "^([" & Minimum.ToString.PadLeft(2, "0") & "]" & Microsoft.VisualBasic.StrDup(Minimum.ToString.Length, "[0-9]") & "|2[0-4][0-9]|25[0-5])$"
I am trying to validate a csv file of domain names (eg. @google.com, @xyz.co.uk, @xyz.edu etc.) I am using the following Regular Expression: Regex(@"@(?:[a-zA-Z0-9-]+.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,4}$", RegexOptions.Compiled); Is there scope for improvement on the above?
Regex(@"@(?:[a-zA-Z0-9-]+.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,4}$", RegexOptions.Compiled); Using the above, I want to pass only values like @gmail.com, @xyz.edu, @co.uk etc... But I find that the values like abc@gmail.com (valid email ids) also pass through.
I am using the below Regular Expression which works fine in case of date validation. But if I select the date from the DatePicket even then it throws alert:Enter valid date. How can I modify the regular expression so as to be compatible with DatePicker.
Set RegularExpressionObject = New RegExp With RegularExpressionObject .Pattern = "^(((0?[1-9]|[12]d|3[01]).-/.-/?d{2}))|((0?[1-9]|[12]d|30).-/.-/?d{2}))|((0?[1-9]|1d|2[0-8])[.-/]0?2.-/?d{2}))|(29[.-/]0?2.-/?(0[48]|[2468][048]|[13579][26])|((16|[2468][048]|[3579][26])00)|00)))$" .IgnoreCase = True .Global = True End With [Code] .....
