    I for one find this amusing and tried to save you from the one-voters. Anyway, my answer would be:

    <[^:Wh]+Tables\(\"(.~(Data>))*\"\)

    Thanks, I can't try it right now as I am too upset over those nasty univoters. Maybe I'll cop a strop and leave ... Well, maybe not.

        He did mark it as a coding challenge and if I recall correctly that makes it Lounge safe ;) I know the last sentence makes it all a bit suspicious, but since this is not his first day here, I am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. Plus AspDotNetDev hasn't posted any puzzles recently and this was somewhat of a substitute :)

        To be absolutely honest, this was a genuine problem I had that I had been toying with for half an hour (I don't know raged from regie Perrin) and was going to Q&A it, then thought that it might be a good coding challenge for the regicides amongst you. I thought lounge posting it may evoke a humorous response - though judging by the quality of some of the recent jokes, the funny-bone of some members is in need of a splint!!

          Sorry, but this belongs either in Q&A or the regex forum. Making it a 'Programming Challenge' is just a con, let's face it.

            It's called Regular Expressions :laugh:

              it flippin' well works, too! you beauty! found meself 30 occurrences in 1511 files - probably saved me an age in looking and missing some! Thanks - please add 5 to your kitty of CP Points - hopefully they will be worth something one day and you can trade them in for something useful!

                Write a regular expression, suitable for the Search option in VS2010, that will find all occurrences of xxxTables("yyy") where xxx is any string of any length yyy is any string of any length that does not end with 'data' e.g. it should find ds.Tables("myTable") but not ds.Tables("myTableData") This is, obviously, just to check out how clever you are - and not because this is something i need to do in a current project :-O

                  I... I... I feel so used :^) All my ideals and beliefs shattered mercilessly by the cruel abuse of the non-programming forum. Will I ever be able to trust another human being? The horror! The horror! But - it is good to know I could help :)
