Publisher Description
EasyPattern Engine COM DLL provides a cool new way to describe text patterns. They're English-like, powerful and easy to understand. EasyPatterns make parsing a US phone number as easy as
PhoneNumber
or if you prefer the long way:
optional punctuation, 3 digits, punctuation, 3 digits, punctuation, 4 digits
Once found it's easy to re-arrange it or reformat it. Using this pattern:
optional punctuation, capture(3 digits), punctuation, capture(3 digits), punctuation, capture(4 digits)
...we could re-arrange phone numbers like this:
$1.$2.$3
($1) $2-$3
+1.$1.$2.$3
How easy is that!
You can easily control the quantity of text you match, and include literal text like this:
1 or more digits, '.', 2 digits
'$', 2+ digits, '.', 2 digits
'USD ', 3 to 6 digits, '.00'
('Month' matches numbers 1-12, and short and long month names)
