Checking A String, RegEx
I have a string that I want to check to be sure there are no single or double quotes in it. Using RegEx should be possible but I cannot figure out how the syntax should go.
I am programming in ASP.NET with C# as the code behind.
here is one I know works to be sure there are only numbers in the string, but i can not for the life of me figure out the right syntax for quotes

In an application I'm working the user has the opportunity to record the
despatching of one or more items with serial numbers.
For each item they despatch, they have to chose the serial no that they want
to despatch from a list of available ones. In many cases, these items will
be of the same time, so the dropdown of available serial no's may be the
same. Code:

I have a text search which reads a textfile and displays each line that has a value the user is searching for. It's practically finished except when it searchs it doesn't look for exact matches (e.g a searh for Ali would return Alison or Alice).
How would i go about using RegEx's to prevent this by making the search look for the exact word entered? Code:

I have this pattern to filter out bad words
regx.Pattern = "darn|dick|swear|blahblah"
it works, but in case of the word "dickinson"
the wordfilter also replaces dick in dickinson d***inson,
so i thought i could try this pattern
regx.Pattern = "darn|dick|swear|blahblah"
but no change, i've tested the regex with a similar PHP script and the operator works.
any clues why it wont work in asp?

I am trying to do some custom forum code, like using [ b ] as a tag and replacing it later using RegEx. The problem is, its not replacing quite right. Its leaving in the []s and its not closing some of the tags.
Here is my pattern: "[ b ]((.|
)*?)[/ b ]"
Here is my replace text: "<b>$1</b>"
Here is some sample text: "yada yada yada [ b ]hey![/ b ] yada yada"
Now, another thing, I would like it to close tags if they aren't closed properly. Is this possible?

I made a regular expression to match Guitar Chords.
[A-G](#|b)?([a-z]|[0-9])*
This pattern should find any of the following:
1) G
2) Gmaj
3) G7
4) G#
5) Gb
6) G#min
The pattern works for all of these except for #4. For some reason it will only return the 'G' instead of the full 'G#'. I find this very odd because if the chord is 'Gb', the regex will return the full 'Gb'.This pattern works fine in javascript. Is there anything special with the '#' character in RegEx for VBScript? I am using VBscript engine 5.6

I'm using regular expressions to identify in a string an url ad format it in hyperlink.
The problem is that in the same string should be bbcodes and the [url] one tooo... so when the regexp will format the code will format the one in bbcode too.
The solution would be the lookaround function of RegEx to see if behind the match there is the [url] code... but it's not implemented in VisualBasicScript. Is there any way to use this function in my script ?

i have text, in it i want to highlight the words user used to find this result.
i used the normal replace, it worked fine except the case thing..
SearchForSp = Split(SearchFor, " ")
For i = 0 to Ubound(SearchForSp)
EmpJobsText = Replace(EmpJobsText, SearchForSp(i), "<strong><u><font
color=red>"&SearchForSp(i)&"</font></u></strong>", vbTextCompare)
EmpJobsText
next
i tried to use the regEx.Repalce from the examples in groups but just couldn't find a way. problem is in the normal replace function i have option to supply a source. in this case "EmpJobsText" is the source. but regEx.Repalce don't seem to have place to type where to replace, only what to replace with what.

I need a pattern to do this:
"?caid=[0-9]+&pgid=oRS("pgId")"
Where [0-9]+ means you need atleast 1 number there, the rest is just a string plus my recordset's variable. I know this syntax would work with the regex I learned at school but I'm not sure how to make it work in ASP.

I have the following regex replace:
putDefInThis = RegExpReplace(putDefInThis, strPattern, "<a href=""" & lcase(replace("$1"," ","-")) & ".asp"">$1</a>")
The problem is that i can not get the vb replace to work on the "$1" in the url. $1 is such that it can be multiple words separated by a space. for the href, I need to convert the space to "-". It does not do that with the way I hvae the code above.

What's a way (like, for a username) to allow lowercase and uppercase letter, and numbers?
Code:
objRegExp.Pattern = "[a-z][0-9]"
objRegExp.Global = True
objRegExp.IgnoreCase = True
That's what I have, but I want to make the letters or numbers OPTIONAL, but right now they are required. how can I fix that?

I have the following regular expression:
re.Pattern = "style[^=]*=[^""]*""[^""]*"""
It will grab any style attribute within HTML that uses double quotes, and put it in the re.Matches collection.Now, I want to include single quotes into this regular expression. Here's what I have so far:
re.Pattern = "style[^=]*=[^""']*(""|')[^1]*1"
but it does not work.

I'm developing an Asp.NET system to take a CSV file uploaded via the web, parse it, and insert the values into an SQL database. My sticking point comes when I try to split() the string returned by readline() on the file.
The following code snippet works for me:
tokens = "one,two,three,four".Split(",")
for each token in tokens
response.write("<td>"+token+"</td>")
next
However, if I take the next line in the CSV, read using StreamReader.ReadLine on the PostedFile.InputStream, I receive "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." which I have narrowed down to be my string holding the line. Further investigation reveals that no other string member functions work on my line (.ToCharArray, .ToString, etc).
I suspect that StreamReader.ReadLine is not correctly returning a string, even though Response.Write(line) displays what I would expect .....

I want to check whether the value in recordset is "=> 3 ".
I try "If rs => '3' then...".
But it doesn't seems working. Can I can't check the condition by using the recordset like how i written above?
Or do I need get the value in recordset and assign to a variable in order to check the condition. Please advice.
Let say my rs now stores a value of "2". Can I check with the following code.
[code]
set rs = server.createobject("...")
rs.open "Select...", objconn
if rs >=3 then 'THIS LINE DOESN"T SEEMS WORKING

I'm trying to qualify email addresses. Is there any reason why the following line would not catch an email address beginning with "www." ?
ElseIf Left(Session("em"),4) = "www." Then
I put in a dummy email address: www.mydomain@aol.com and it goes through....
<%=Left(Session("em"),4)%> does reflect "www."
why?

Is it possible to have an ASP page which checks if a user is in a certain group in Active Directory (AD). For example jbloggs is logged in and belongs to the group "project_allowed". When jbloggs goes to project.asp it will allow him access
However when jsmith is logged in and belongs to no groups and tries to access project.asp it will deny him access.

The script is designed as a form validator which checks fields for various criteria and then sends a mail with the form contents. Since 40 different forms will be plugged into this script, there needed to be complete seperation between the two.
I've managed it so far by checking for required fields by putting the word 'required' into the name of the field. The script then sources out any fields which has this text and checks them to see if they are filled out.
The problem I've come across now is that I need to check for field length. My idea was to put the amount of characters needed into the name of the field in the form and then have the script check with a Reg Exp. However, Im not too sure of the regular expression needed to check for this.
Can someone suggest one? The one I have at the moment is [1-14] but say I had a field like this: <input type="text" name="passwordrequired12"> That would match bout for 1 and 12. Any ideas?

I am a somewhat beginner in ASP. I would like 2 know how do I check whether a recordset, that was fetched from an MS-ACCESS database through a 'SELECT' query, is empty or not??
The scenario is that I m making a form where users can register for my message board. The form will take in all the details and pass on to another asp file which checks whether the username is already in use or not. If its in use then it says that Username in use else the page is displaying error.
I m using the following sql.
"select * from members where user='" & username & "'"
The error is something like record cannot be found. Either EOF or BOF or the record was deleted.
