Question

I am facing a situation dealing with Microsoft Word’s Find feature.
I have the following code which works in matching the text of patterns like ASAss12345 or ASAhg76543 etc.

uiFind.Text = "ASA^$^$^#^#^#^#^#"

;

But this pattern also matches occurrences like exampleASAjj76543 and also ASAjj78987sample
But I need to match patterns containing only ASAss12345

I know to do this in usual regex like “\bASA^$^$^#^#^#^#^#\b”. But, how can I do the same when using word editor property in Outlook 2007?

Answer 1

Try this

\bASA[a-z]{2}\d[0-9]*$

Edit:
This one is for Word

<ASA[a-z]{2}[0-9]{5}>
