Hi Jared,
I'm using Regex Buddy right now for testing. I also already have Expresso,
The Regulator, and the RegEx Designer...I've been going crazy trying to get
some help.
Dim ssnRegex As String = "^(?!000)([0-6]\d{2}|7([0-6]\d|7[012])) ([ -])?
(?!00)\d\d([ -|])? (?!0000)\d{4}$"
Dim options As System.Text.RegularExpressions.RegexOptions =
System.Text.RegularExpressions.RegexOptions.Multiline
Dim oSSNRegex As New Regex(RegExTypes.ssnRegex, RegExTypes.options)
Inside Regex Buddy, or any of the others, if I use their method to import
the text from a test file everything works great and the RegEx returns a
match. However, when I view the debugger in Visual Studio and take a look at
the string I see all of the square like VbCrLf's in with the string that
represents the file I'm testing. If I paste the string that represents the
file I'm testing from the watch list in Visual Studio to Regex Buddy, or any
of the others, the RegEx fails to make a match. Additionally, I've also
tried replacing all of the VbCr and VbLf's with just a blank space " ".
Here is a representation of the filecontents I'm looking at (from inside the
Visual Studio debugger). I've replaced all of the actual VbCrLf's with
readable values:

Does this information help in figuring out what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks,
