ComponentOne VSFlexGrid 8.0
MatchString Property

Returns or sets the string corresponding to the current match.

Syntax

[form!]VSFlexString.MatchString([ MatchIndex As Long ])[ = value As String ]

Remarks

Looking for a pattern in a string may result in several matches. You can retrieve information about each match using the MatchLength, MatchStart, and MatchString properties.

The optional parameter MatchIndex should be a number between zero and MatchCount - 1. The default value is the current value of the MatchIndex property.

If you assign a new value to MatchString, the original text -- stored in the Text property -- is modified and a new match is attempted automatically.

For example:

 fs.Text = "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog."

 fs.Pattern = "[A-Z]*[a-z]+"

 For i = 0 To fs.MatchCount - 1

     s = fs.MatchString(i)

     fs.MatchString(i) = UCase(Left(s, 1)) & Mid(s, 2)

 Next

 Debug.Print fs.Text

This code capitalizes the first letter of each word, producing the following output:

The Quick Brown Fox Jumped Over The Lazy Dog.
