Rate this Message:
Hi,
Im trying to find a word occurence in a list (comma deliminated) using RegEx but the gray matter is letting me down. Here's a sample list im using. pass,pass,pass,10,andypass,pass,asdasdapass,pass,1pass,pass1,pass and this is where i am at [\,]+pass[\,]+ This gives me 100% positive results but doesnt use the first and last values D'oh I've tried a few variations but so far no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

Can you not simply add a comma onto the start & end of the string list
before doing the RegEx?

,?pass,?
should work, it allows zero or one occurences of a comma before and after a word ,?\bpass\b,? does the same thing as the above, but it looks for pass as a word by itself so it wouldn't match things like andypass and pass1 and the like.

Either use the (^|,) (,|$) to optionally have the beginning of
string/end of string or comma or pad the front and back with a hard-coded comma.(",#string#,") On 7/25/05, Andy Jarrett <andy.jarrett@...> wrote: > Hi, > > Im trying to find a word occurence in a list (comma deliminated) using RegEx but the gray matter is letting me down. > > Here's a sample list im using. > > pass,pass,pass,10,andypass,pass,asdasdapass,pass,1pass,pass1,pass > > and this is where i am at > > [\,]+pass[\,]+ > > This gives me 100% positive results but doesnt use the first and last values D'oh > > I've tried a few variations but so far no avail. > > Any help would be appreciated. > > Regards, Andy J > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:21:900 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/21 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:21 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=17837.14401.21 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54 |

Just a dumb question, but why use a regex at all? I'm assuming that
there's a larger, surrounding issue. That might help point to an optimal solution. --Ben Andy Jarrett wrote: > Hi, > > Im trying to find a word occurence in a list (comma deliminated) using RegEx but the gray matter is letting me down. > > Here's a sample list im using. > > pass,pass,pass,10,andypass,pass,asdasdapass,pass,1pass,pass1,pass > > and this is where i am at > > [\,]+pass[\,]+ > > This gives me 100% positive results but doesnt use the first and last values D'oh > > I've tried a few variations but so far no avail. > > Any help would be appreciated. > > Regards, Andy J > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:21:901 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/21 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:21 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=17837.14401.21 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54 |

Tony, cheers ,?\bpass\b,? work perfectly.
Ben, why use RegEx. Well cause i was doing it in CF. But it seemed a waste of time going looping through a list to find the occurences when RegEx does it.

You can use ListValueCount(list, wordtofind)
