Helpful Find and Replace for ASP to ASP.NET Conver

[body767]

I finally figured out a great method of performing a Find and Replace using regular expressions in the Visual Studio.NET software.<BR><BR>I was tasked with changing all my recordset field references from <BR><BR>objRs1("txtFieldname")<BR><BR>to<BR><BR>objRs1.Fields("txtFieldname").Value<BR><BR>So, I performed the following Find and Replace on all files.<BR><BR>Find what: <objRs{:i*}[(]{:q}[)]<BR>Replace with: objRs1.Fields(2).Value<BR><BR>Make sure you have Use: "Regular expressions" selected in the Find window. If your recordset objects don't start with "objRs", then just replace that portion of the regular expression with what your recordsets start with.<BR><BR>Obviously, test this method before you run it on all of your ASP files. I don't want anyone coming to me because they replaced a bunch of things that they never intended on replacing.Great tip! Thanks for the info!
