How to use regular expression pattern for variable prompt #4066

question

nini10 · 5 years ago

Hi,

Can you please guide me how to use regular expression pattern for variable prompt?

I have variable which "prompt as text input" and I want to verify it doesn't contains space.
I tried several patterns, but none of them work:

^\s*\S+\s*$
[^-\s]
.\S.

What is the right way to do it?

Thanks!

The correct syntax would be:

[\\S]+

Note that the normal syntax is [\S]+, however for QB the regex is considered as a Java string, so back slash needs to be escaped.
