Hello,

Trying to setup RegularExpressionValidator to validate a textbox. I am
trying to make sure that the user enters the word Green. The case does
not matter.

However, i am totally new to Regex. Could I get some help?

Thanks.

Hi Frank

It just so happens that I too have been delving into the undergound
world of "Regular expressions" recently. My need was a bit more
complex than yours though.

I'm going to assume at this point that if you were given a patterrn
string you can do the rest. How about:

"(green)+"

when you create the Regex object there is a parameter that specifies
"ignore case". Check it out.

To decide whether it occurs or not you only need to test the "success"
property of the "match" object.

I hope I've pitched the above at the right level, let me know
otherwise.

Don't forget to add a RequiredFieldValidator as well.
If you don't, a blank field will still be validated.
