Hi, I am trying to parse a text file that contains key,value pairs like: Name=Malarky Size=10 BackImage[N]=sometext FrontImage[S]=sometext etc using a construct like For idx = 0 to sourcearray.max Select Upper(Split(SourceArray[idx],"+")[0]) Case "NAME" blah blah Case "SIZE" blah blah Case Like "BACKIMAGE[*]" blah blah Case Like "FRONTIMAGE[*]" blah blah End Select Next
This fails because Case Like "BACKIMAGE[*]" is being interpreted as a regular expression where I need to escape the regexp "[]" meaning. Trying to use escapes like Case Like "BACKIMAGE\[*\]" fails as \[ is an unknown escape sequence. Any clues? tia Bruce ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Own the Future-Intel® Level Up Game Demo Contest 2013 Rise to greatness in Intel's independent game demo contest.
