Re: RegularExpressions

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hello Jaroslav,

Hi,

is it possible to create regular expression, using c# Regex to:

1. check if the string does NOT contain a word
2. check the same as 1. but for reverse word
Why:
I have to check when the password doesn't contain username nor reverse
username.
Example:
I've username: joe
The password must not contain "joe" nor "eoj".
I know I can use "joe+" regex, but this returns true in case the
string "joe" is present but I need to get false in that case.

Ohh by the way. The 'joe+' regex does indeed match of joe is anywhere in the string, but so would just 'joe' as regex. The + at the end doesn't belong in your expression at all...
