regular expression

Hi all,
I m able to use regular expression in a Vbs script, but how can I use them
(if it's possible ) in reporting service code ?
I havent found any subjects like this in the my books (even in "MRS in
action" by Téo Lachev :) )
ThanksFirst, add a function to do your Regular expression in the report level
Code (Report --> Properties --> Code) . Here's an example:
----
Public Function RegExTest () as Object
Dim Str As String = "<expressiontext>the text the returned by
the regular expression</expressiontext>"
Dim expressiontext As String
Dim regexexpressiontext As System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex
= New
System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex("<expressiontext>(?<expressiontext>[^<]+)</expressiontext>",
System.Text.RegularExpressions.RegexOptions.IgnoreCase)
expressiontext =regexexpressiontext.Match(Str).Groups("expressiontext").Value
RegExTest = expressiontext
End Function
----
Now your text box will refer to the code in a fashion similar to this:
=Code.RegExTest
And low and behold, regular expressions in Reporting Services.
