Help : Choose many special texts in a paragraph ...

[gerym]

My work is : I have one file abc.txt , in this file there is many special names and I must collect them , then report all of them . Ex : in 1 paragraph as :

London sdjksdjkfhdskfhsjkfhdsjkf Paris kldfjkldsjfdslkfjsldfkj New York sdjkfhdsjkfhdsjkfdshfksh London blah blah blah ...

I must delete all but "London" , "Paris" and "New York" ... and the last it is : London Paris New York London ... so I can save it .

Any ideas ? Thanks first if u can help me

look at StringRegExp or StringReplace

[gerym]

hmm ... I don't understand ... can u give me code for example ...

I believe it's time you posted an effort, you have not produced a single

piece of your own code since arriving.

Look at stringsplit for starters.

Example

#include-once
#include <Array.au3>

$sString = "London sdjksdjkfhdskfhsjkfhdsjkf Paris kldfjkldsjfdslkfjsldfkj New York sdjkfhdsjkfhdsjkfdshfksh London blah blah blah ..."
RegEx ( $sString )
MsgBox( 64, 'Replaced', $sString )

Func RegEx( ByRef $sString )
$aRet = StringRegExp ( $sString, '(London|Paris|New York)', 3 )
$sString = _ArrayToString( $aRet , ' ' )
EndFunc

Maybe i should just start asking for code rather than learning :/

No, you shouldn't

Usually we don't hand feed users here. We try to teach them how to fish.

I was just messing Water as i prefer to try and write my own scripts then if i get stuck then yes i would ask with some code to gt told "wooow there is a much better way lol" but as John said all posts have been without code an i believe one thread closed for game related.

Thanks all . i understood what u said ...

and btw , PhoenixXL , i like your avatar ...

Sr for 1 more question : How can split $sString , ex $a1 = "London" , $a2 = "Paris" , $a3 = "New York" , $a4 = "London" ???

sorry for my bad :| I'm not good at english so something I understand and else i don't

You don't need to split $sString. $aRet is alread the array you need.
