How to use multiple condition in replace activity

i want to replace 5 blank space to single space, 6 blank space to single space and 9 blank space to single space in the same string
can replace activity do it.

Hi @ashishmani,

Please try with Regex. Hope you have stored the string into a String Variable.

Now, try the below -
Regex.Replace(Your_String_Variable,β€œ\s+”," ")

Hope it will help you.

Thanks & Regards,

the best way for this is using regex. For you case try this:

system.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(your_string,β€œ\s{5}”," β€œ) and
system.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(your_string,”\s{6}β€œ,” ")

\s represent any space character

How use it?

Put a assign activity β†’
your_string = system.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(your_string,β€œ\s{5}”," ")

Just remember that you should first do the 9 space, then the 6 space, then the 5 space replace in that order :wink:

hi @ ashishmani,

or use replace in norlam

Like
to 5
YourString = YourString.Reaplce(" β€œ,” β€œ) ← 5 Times Space
to 6
YourString = YourString.Reaplce(” β€œ,” β€œ) ← 6 Times Space
to
YourString = YourString.Reaplce(” β€œ,” ") ← 9 Times Space

this AND condition is not working here

there is no AND condition there, just do the replace 3 times one after the other…

my string type is "System.string[ .]

im gwtting error

In your screenshot seems like … your code having extra " and . remove last two digit in your code &

system.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(your_string,β€œ\s{5,9}”," ")

more than one Space use below code

system.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(your_string,β€œ\s{2,}”," ")
