Hi,

I'm trying to put together a form in Outlook, and I want to use a regular
expression to find a section of a file so I can modify only that part. I've
tried looking for regular expressions in VBA on the internet, but I can't
find any good sources. Does anyone have a good place to look or have a
quick primer?

Thanks!
 
VBA has no RegEx object of its own. Use CreateObject to instantiate one from the VBS library, as the samples show.

Ah, thank you.

I feel that these are the types of things that are really lacking
explanation from Microsoft. There are many things that I learn from other
people's code, and can't find any CLEAR reference to in their language
reference library.

Be thankful.
This makes our job so challenging.
