I require a regular expression for the Visual Studio Search and Replace functionality, as follows:
Search for the following term: sectorkey in (
There could be multiple spaces between each of the above 3 search terms, or even multiple line breaks/carriage returns.
The search term is looking for SQL statements that have hard-coded SectorKey values inside a SQL in statement. These need to be replaced with a SQL join statement – this will be done manually.
The little arrow to the right of the Find What box is your friend and can help you with the vagaries of the MS regex syntax.
Newline is represented by
\n, so you can just dosectorkey( |\n)+in( |\n)+\((You need to escape the open paren in your search expression, since that’s used in grouping.)
