I want to generate a usable filename (no path, drive letter, or extension)
from strings from various sources (dates, database fields, user entry, etc).
I'm trying to use the following line and regex to replace any invalid
characters with an empty string. However, it doesn't work. I've tested the
expression with RegExBuddy and it says it is fine and does what I want. I
am aware of some bugs in the .Net Framework 1.0 regarding regex, but this is
a 1.1 application. Any help would be appreciated.
Regex.Replace(FileName,"[^\\w$%_@~`!(){}^#&-]*",string.Empty);
