.NET Forum / Languages / C# / March 2008Regex to with whitespace or tab or newline, can't seem to get it to work.
Hi, I have text in a file that looks like this: [ 2 in stock] What kind of regex could get the '2' ? I tried this: string regex = @"[\s]*(?'stock'.*?).*in\sstock]"; But it didn't work since [\s]* doesn't include tabs etc, and I am not sure exactly what that whitespace is..... > I have text in a file that looks like this: > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > What kind of regex could get the '2' ? Try @"(\d+)(?:\s+in stock)" or @"(\d+)(?:\s+in\s+stock)" !

If it contains whitespace then what do you want returned ?

If it does not contain any digits but only whitespace at that position you want it to return 2 ?? Arne > >>>>> I have text in a file that looks like this: > >>>>> [ [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > > Arne The text is like this: [ 2 in stock] All that whitespace could be: 1) whitespace 2)carriage return 3) tabs I want to extract the integer value (in the example I'm giving it is 2). >>>>>>> I have text in a file that looks like this: >>>>>>> [ [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > I want to extract the integer value (in the example I'm giving it is > 2). \s matches space, CR and TAB ! So I do still not understand the problem. Arne > >>>>>>> I have text in a file that looks like this: > >>>>>>> [ [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > > Arne Ok I got it to work!
