    copied!<p>I am working in VBA and have a regex to identify a pattern ASA1234ss. I am converting certain pattern of item in inbox to urls.</p> <pre><code>Body=objItem.HTMLBody With RegX .Pattern = "ASA[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][a-z][a-z]" .Global = True .IgnoreCase = Not MatchCase End With 'Replacing the pattern with a hyperlink Body = RegX.Replace(Body, "&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=$&amp;'&gt;$&amp;&lt;/a&gt;") objItem.HTMLBody = Body </code></pre> <p>This works good in replacing the pattern only once. But when I again execute the macro, the hyperlinked patterns again gets replaced with same text appending to it.</p> <p>For Eg:</p> <p>Sample Input </p> <pre><code>ASA8765jd ASA7765jh ASA8873hi </code></pre> <p>First Execution</p> <pre><code>&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA8765jd'&gt;ASA8765jd&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA7765jh'&gt;ASA7765jh&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA8873hi'&gt;ASA8873hi&lt;/a&gt; </code></pre> <p>Second Execution</p> <pre><code>&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA8765jd'&gt;ASA8765jd&lt;/a&gt;'&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA8765jd'&gt;ASA8765jd&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA7765jh'&gt;ASA7765jh&lt;/a&gt;'&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA7765jh'&gt;ASA7765jh&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA8873hi'&gt;ASA8873hi&lt;/a&gt;'&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA8873hi'&gt;ASA8873hi&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt; </code></pre> <p>Third Execution</p> <pre><code>&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA8765jd'&gt;ASA8765jd&lt;/a&gt;'&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA8765jd'&gt;ASA8765jd&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;'&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA8765jd'&gt;ASA8765jd&lt;/a&gt;'&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA8765jd'&gt;ASA8765jd&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA7765jh'&gt;ASA7765jh&lt;/a&gt;'&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA7765jh'&gt;ASA7765jh&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;'&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA7765jh'&gt;ASA7765jh&lt;/a&gt;'&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA7765jh'&gt;ASA7765jh&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA8873hi'&gt;ASA8873hi&lt;/a&gt;'&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA8873hi'&gt;ASA8873hi&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;'&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA8873hi'&gt;ASA8873hi&lt;/a&gt;'&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.stack.com=ASA8873hi'&gt;ASA8873hi&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt; </code></pre>
