-----Original Message----- From: Richard Detwiler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 13, 2007 4:42 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [users] Some difficulty with regular expressions I'm using OOo 2.1, and Windows XP, SP2. I had some trouble getting certain regular expressions to work. Here's an example, taken from Help: [:space:] Represents a white space character such as space. When I try this, I get the message that the search key was not found, even though there are lots of spaces in the document I was searching. Then somewhat out of desperation, I tried: [ ] (brackets with a single space in between) This worked! I then tried some other expressions, taken from Help, such as: [:alnum:] Represents an alphanumeric character ([:alpha:] and [:digit:]). And again, this did not find anything. I believe that I used [:space:] previously, with OOo 2.0.4 or 2.0.3, and it worked like it was supposed to. Can anyone confirm what I'm seeing? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
