Thank Conrad... but I think the engine is the one that's wrong, coz what would then be the difference between ^\d{10} and ^\d{10,} ? On 4 March 2010 00:27, Rad! <conradakunga@gmail.com> wrote:
The regex you have is right. But it is also wrong
\d{10} means a number with 10 digits. A number with eleven digits also has ten digits.
If you mean that you want a string with exactly ten digits the regex you want is this one
^\d{10}$

Thats a handfull. Perl Regex (which I believe .NET implements) would be
/[0-9]{10}/ ... And to be absolutely sure : /[0-9]{10,10}/
Its also possible that the slight differences between these regex engines is the reason our good friend was pulling at his hairs.

Never mind, I used if (!match.Success || txtAccountNum.Text.Length != 10) throw Exception else Endelea()
the posix regex for 10 digits looks like this : [0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9] _______________________________________________ Skunkworks mailing list Skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks ------------ Skunkworks Server donations spreadsheet
