Hi Rick,
One alternative is to use "Microsoft Scriptlet
Control". Using this,
you will be able to use the regular expression features
provided by
JavaScript.

I'm not sure what limitations you are talking about. If
Javascript also
has the limitations that you are trying to work around, then
you wont
be able to use this approach as well.

Regards,
Sarith Sutha.

    Hi Sarith,

Thanks for the reply. One example is that VBScript.RegExp does not support lookbehinds. Also, in one application, using Replace changed some of the special characters in my string. These were characters that were not being changed but should have passed through untouched. I found the PCRE (Perl Compatible Regular Expressions) code, but I don't think there is a COM wrapper around it. Since the source code is available, I may try to do this myself (if I can figure it out). Thanks again.

    Hi Michael,

I would be glad to IF I could use Perl as a Windows COM object. My primary scripting language is FrameScript, which is a scripting environment for Adobe FrameMaker, a long-document page layout program. FrameScript does not support regular expressions natively, but allows me to access COM objects that are installed on my system. Because of this, I am able to use regular expressions in FrameScript using the 
VBScript.RegExp COM object. So my request is for a Perl-like regular expressions program that has a COM interface.

Interestingly, I have installed PerlScript on my computer, but apparently it only exposes Perl for web server scripting. It is not exposed as a normal Windows COM object. This would be ideal if it had a Windows COM interface.


So, for now you will have to applaud by yourself 

Rick
