Sorry, but I can't find the regular expression tips page on the website any more...

Can someone tell me how to do a file filter that matches an exact file name? That is, if the filter is Mysong.mp3, I want it to match Mysong.mp3, but not 1Mysong.mp3 or Mysong.mp34567?

Thanks,

jim

Hmm, I can't find it either. I must have lost it the last time I revamped the site. To get an exact match with white space on either side, [ ]Mysong\.mp3[ ] where there is a space between the brackets. The backslash escapes the period because in regex, the period means "Match any single character" by itself.
