Regular Expression

[Aah]

Where can I get a good resource to know more about Regular expression in
vb.net
I have like 1000 asp/aspx files where I need to find certain file path and
update it with certain text.
I am thinking of creating a win app to do this.
Can anyone suggest what will be the best way to do this?

Aah,

Where can I get a good resource to know more about Regular expression in
vb.net http://www.regular-expressions.info/

Can anyone suggest what will be the best way to do this?

Have you tried "Edit - Find and Replace - Find in Files" within VS.NET? It
supports both plain text & regular expression searches.

Hope this helps
Jay

Not sure if this will help, but I use it all the time.

Note that the syntax used by search and replace is not the same as the .NET
regex syntax.

Eric,
Yes, important note!

I don't suppose that is changing in Whidbey or Orca? ;-) (as it may break
too many macros). Although I did notice that Whidbey (PDC release) has a new
Find/Replace dialog...

Thanks
Jay
