    <p>I want to access RegEx results after I am done moving files with this script. (For example: I want to later send the names of files that matched regex pattern to my E-mail)</p> <p>Problem is: Can't use "objFile.Name" outside of the initial file moving loop that I get during regex. This should have been possible using the "Execute" method for RegEx, but unfortunately I can't get it to work on a collection resulting from "GetFolder().Files", it works for me only on single strings.</p> <p>Only Test method worked for me initially, and it works OK for initial file moving, but then I get runtime errors when I cannot access the "objFile" object later.</p> <p>My latest attempt to try to write resulting matches into array also don't work, error is:</p> <p><strong>Line 26, 3</strong></p> <p><strong>Object doesn't support this property or method:</strong></p> <p><em><strong></em>'SubMatches'</strong></p> <p>Here's the latest attempt at getting this code to work:</p> <pre><code>Set objFS = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") strDumpStorageDir = "C:\" strShareDirectory = "E:\" Set objFolder = objFS.GetFolder(strShareDirectory) Set colFiles = objFolder.Files Set re = New RegExp re.Global = True re.IgnoreCase = False re.Pattern = "fs" Dim matches() Dim i: i = 0 For Each objFile in colFiles bMatch = re.Test(objFile.Name) If bMatch Then objFS.MoveFile strShareDirectory &amp; objFile.Name , strDumpStorageDir End If ReDim preserve matches(i) Matches(i) = objFile.SubMatches(0) i = (i + 1) Next For i = 0 to uBound(Matches) wscript.echo Matches(i) Next WScript.Quit </code></pre>

    1. CORegExp seems like overkill for what you are doing here. Is there a particular reason you're not using string functions?

    2. COYou cannot `Execute()` a RegExp on a collection, you can only do this on a string, so you have to iterate through all files. I agree with Nilpo, why don't you use `If Instr(objFile.Name, "fs") Then ...` in this case?

    3. COPerhaps I should have included more info on my ultimate goal in the first place. "fs" is only a sample pattern, e.g. simplest that would work. In reality there will be plenty of other stuff in this folder and I will need to have to differentiate between filenames like: fs-<servername_here>-<date_here>.<file_extension_here>. Which is why I think that using a string (Which I would not know in advance) is not an option and decided to use RegEx pattern matching instead. Hope that you can understand my certifiably insane solution. :)

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
