Hi
I need to split a comma delimited text, however if the comma is between ' '
then no split should occur
ie:
Class.Value, 'true' , 'some text', 'false', 'text, text, text'
should split into:
Class.Value
'true'
'some text
'false', 'text, text, text'
what split expression should I use for that??
TIA

Why should the apostrophe be removed? Or is it a typo?
'false', 'text, text, text'
Why shouldn't it split between 'false' and 'text, text, text'?

Sorry, it was a typo, it should split into:
Class.Value
'true'
'some text'
'false'
'text, text, text'
ie. it shouldn't split on comma if the comma is between two apostrophes....
..NET regular expression.....

Make a pattern that matches one item, something like
"(?:([^,]+|'[^']*')", and use the Matches method to get a collection of
Match items that each contains one item.

Hi Göran
Doesn't seem to solve the problem, if I look at the matches I get:
Class.Value
'true'
'some text'
'false'
'text
text
text'
wouldn't I have to use som king of negative lookbehind??

When I look at the pattern I gave you, I see that the parantheses
doesn't match, so it won't be usable. How did the pattern look that you
used?
I think that just disallowing apostrophes in the first set will fix it:
"([^',]+|'[^']*')"
