object.Length

The object argument is always a Match object.

The following code illustrates the use of the Length property:

	Copy Code
Function RegExpTest(patrn, strng) Dim regEx, Match, Matches ' Create variable. Set regEx = New RegExp ' Create regular expression. regEx.Pattern = patrn ' Set pattern. regEx.IgnoreCase = True ' Set case insensitivity. regEx.Global = True ' Set global applicability. Set Matches = regEx.Execute(strng) ' Execute search. For Each Match in Matches ' Iterate Matches collection. RetStr = RetStr & "Match " & I & " found at position " RetStr = RetStr & Match.FirstIndex & ". Match Length is " RetStr = RetStr & Match.Length RetStr = RetStr & " characters." & vbCRLF Next RegExpTest = RetStr End Function MsgBox(RegExpTest("is.", "IS1 is2 IS3 is4"))

Copy Code

Function RegExpTest(patrn, strng)
   Dim regEx, Match, Matches   ' Create variable.
   Set regEx = New RegExp   ' Create regular expression.
   regEx.Pattern = patrn   ' Set pattern.
   regEx.IgnoreCase = True   ' Set case insensitivity.
   regEx.Global = True   ' Set global applicability.
   Set Matches = regEx.Execute(strng)   ' Execute search.
   For Each Match in Matches   ' Iterate Matches collection.
      RetStr = RetStr & "Match " & I & " found at position "
      RetStr = RetStr & Match.FirstIndex & ". Match Length is "
      RetStr = RetStr & Match.Length 
      RetStr = RetStr & " characters." & vbCRLF
   Next
   RegExpTest = RetStr
End Function
MsgBox(RegExpTest("is.", "IS1 is2 IS3 is4"))
