(?<=Title=“[^”])\b+MyWord+\b(?=[^"]")

Hi @hansen_Lobo ,

Could you let us know if you have verified it in one of the Regex Testing sites ?

If not, Could you provide us with the Sample data and the data that you want to match. We could check it out in the below regex testing portal :

regex101: build, test, and debug regex

Then correct it as needed.

Hi @hansen_Lobo

Try the below regex expression

(?<=“).*(?=”)

Regards

[hansen_Lobo]

The sample data. i used https://regexr.com/

<TocEntry
      Title="Color" - Highlight this text Color
Title=["Color"] - Ignore  this text Color
      Link="/Content/Color/" - ignore this text Color
      BreakType="Color" - ignore this text Color
      StartSection="false"
      PageNumberReset="Color"> - ignore this text Color
</TocEntry>
<TocEntry
      Title="Colord"> - ignore this text Colord
      //there could be Link="abc", BreakType="abc" here aswell
</TocEntry>
<TocEntry
      Title="dColord"> - ignore this text dColord
</TocEntry>

<TocEntry
      Title="my fav Color is red"> - Highlight this text Color
Title=["my fav Color is red"]> -  - ignore this text Color
</TocEntry>
<TocEntry
      Title="my fav 
Color

@hansen_Lobo ,

Could you try with the below Expression :

"(?<=Title="")"+MyWord+"(?="")"

[hansen_Lobo]

@supermanPunch

"(?<=Title="")"+MyWord+"(?="")"

Unable to match with all the conditions

Unable to match with all the conditions

@hansen_Lobo ,

Could you let us know what do you mean by this ? Do you have varying data ?

If so, we need to understand how does the data vary from the data provided above.

[hansen_Lobo]

Here are 3 conditions:

• I need to replace text only if its inside Title=“The serach term here can be selected”.

• I dont want to replace text within square brackets inside Title=[“The text here no replacing”]

• The word should exactly match the term.

@hansen_Lobo

Title=[“The text here no replacing”]

@hansen_Lobo ,

Could you verify back whether the given data is correct ? Is the Square Bracket before the Double Quotes, if so then the Provided Regex should work fine and replace only words starting from double quotes.

[hansen_Lobo]

Title=“Color” - Highlight this text Color
Title=[“Color”] - Ignore this text Color
Title=“A red Color bus”- Highlight this text Color
Title=“A red Colored bus” -Ignore this text Color
Variable="A red Color bus "-Ignore this text Color since not Title=

[supermanPunch (Arpan)]

@hansen_Lobo ,

Not so sure if we are fully understanding the requirement. Do check the below match :

[hansen_Lobo]

@hansen_Lobo

Title=“Color” - Highlight this text Color
Title=[“Color”] - Ignore this text Color
Title=“A red Color bus”- Highlight this text Color
Title=“A red Colored bus” -Ignore this text Color
Variable="A red Color bus "-Ignore this text Color since not Title=

The word Color in line 3 doesn’t Highlight
