Regular exp. question...

[RSibagatullin]

Hi,
I wrote a basic function which implements a saving  of two text data into  user selected files. The user chooses  one file name and the program should have appended a _CH_B string to the user selected name and saved the second file with that new generated name. For some reason my regular expression part does not work even though i checked the reg. exression on a stand alone engine. Please see my attached program

I prefer less code. 😉

Maybe try something like in the attached. Modify as needed.

(Seems oyu want to append, so add a few things inside the small FOR loop. ;))

altenbach,
You are the best!

Back to your regular expression problem. The reason you never get a match is the fact that filenames don't typically end in a newline character.

Thanks. I realized that I was supposed to use  $ instead of \n.
