Hi Bill,
I want to add word count to my application. Consider the textcontrol
as a regular Windows Forms Rich Text Box. How would I go about
counting words?
Try Regular Expressions, for example:
========================
string pattern = "\b(\S+)\b"
int wordCount = Regex.Matches( richTextBox1.Text, pattern,
RegexOptions.None ).Count;
========================
There's more than one way to to it, but the Regex here should be ok to do
the job. Don'T forget to import the Namespace
System.Text.RegularExpressions.
Regards,
Frank Eller
