What I am I doing wrong related to StringRegExp

[koenp]

Hello everybody,

I am wondering if anybody could help me or tell me what I am doing wrong..

I try to capture some text out of a text file...

This is the content of the text file :

Unités g/L : Méthode : HAPT Date/Heure : 2013-03-21 15:38:41 Etat : Etendu ID appareil : DV330681

What I want to capture is "HAPT" everything after "Méthode : " and before " Date/Heure"

This is the code that i have until now:

Func _Calibratie()
Global $reY = StringRegExp(FileRead($file), 'Méthode :\s+(\S+)',0)
Global $reT = StringRegExp(FileRead($file), 'Méthode :\s+(\S+)',3)

Msgbox(64,"CAL",$reY)

Msgbox(64,"CAL",$reT)

When i run the code the result of $reY = 1 (for me this means that it found the string correctly)

However the result of $reT is nothing/ empty..

does anybody has any idea what i am doing wrong ?

Many thanks for all help..

Kindly regards,

Koen

$reT is an array.

try this:

Global $reT = StringRegExp(FileRead($file), '(?i)Méthode :\s+(.*?)Date/Heure',3)

Hello,

here is some more information...

Global $Method = StringRegExp(FileRead($file), '(?i)Méthode :\s+(.*?)Date/Heure',3)
_ArrayDisplay($Method)
FileMove($orgnamepath & "\" & $rcvname & ".pdf", $finamepath & "\" & $prefixC & "_" & $Method & ".pdf",1)

When I am doing a QrrqyDisplqy I can see the correct result now ( thanks to BrewManNH and mlipok);

but how can i transfer this result into a variable so that I can use this to create example a filename?

Thanks a lot for all support...

koenp,

Please use the standard size font - putting everything into _subscript makes it too small to read comfortably.

Look at the return from StringRegExp when using option flag 3, the returned information is contained in an array, you can not display it in a MsgBox the way you're trying to do it. Using option flag 0 it returns true or false (1 or 0) so you can display that in the msgbox to tell you it found the information you're looking for.

If you're unfamiliar with how to handle information in an array, I would look here to read up on them.
