For example, we have the string bellow and following a rule that parse after K. If I specify the possibility of one (1) lost parsing, we should have as result: ASADASDASKASSASADASASADKASADASASAKDDAASASKASSADAD ASKSASA ASADASDASK ASSASADASASADK ASADASASAK DDAASASK ASSADADASK SASA ASADASDASKASSASADASASADK ASSASADASASADKASADASASAK ASADASASAKDDAASASK DDAASASKASSADADASK ASSADADASKSASA Do you have any idea how to implement that in your script? Thanks in advance, Luciano It would just be a matter of combining the results from the array we generate. Examining your example result, it appears as if you want to have both the original output with the output relevant to the number of "skipped" parsing's below it. Since this is getting more complex, I have taken the liberty of also outputting the rule(s) being used; and separating the original output from the output with the "skipped" parsing's. This has required some modifications so I am posting the entire macro as it presently exists. Eventually, it might be useful to input the parameters (rule(s) and number of skips) via a user form, instead of multiple Input Box's as I've done so far. ================================================== ==== Option Explicit Dim aRule(0 To 1, 1 To 100) As String Sub ParseSpecial() Dim c As Range Dim i As Long, j As Long Dim vRule As Variant Dim lSkips As Long Dim aResRule1() As String Dim aResRule2() As String Dim re As Object, mc As Object, m As Object 'Rules 'construct so that all strings will have at least 'one match 'store each rule number in the corresponding element of 'the aRule array aRule(0, 1) = "Right side of K or R; NOT if P is Right to K or R" aRule(1, 1) = "([^KR]|[KR]P)+[KR]?|[KR]" aRule(0, 2) = "Right side of K or R" aRule(1, 2) = "[^KR]+[KR]?|[KR]" aRule(0, 3) = "Right side of K or R; NOT if P is Right to K or R; " & _ * * "after K in CKY, DKD, CKH, CKD, KKR; after R in RRH, RRR, " & _ * * "CRK, DRD, RRF, KRR" aRule(1, 3) = "(CKY|DKD|CKH|CKD|KKR|RRH|RRR|CRK|DRD|RRF|KRR|[^KR]|" & _ * * "[KR]P)+[KR]?|[KR]" aRule(0, 4) = "Right side of K" aRule(1, 4) = "[^K]+K?|K" aRule(0, 8) = "Left side of D" aRule(1, 8) = "D?[^D]+|D" aRule(0, 9) = "Left side of D, Right side of K" aRule(1, 9) = "D?[^KD]+K?|[KD]" aRule(0, 17) = "Right side of F, L" aRule(1, 17) = "[^FL]+[FL]?|[FL]" vRule = _ * Split(InputBox("Rule Number (for multiple rules, separate with space): ")) lSkips = InputBox(Prompt:="Number to Skip", Default:="0") Set c = Selection 'or whatever If c.Count 1 Then * * MsgBox ("Can only select one cell") * * 'but could add code to iterate through a * * ' *bunch of cells * * Exit Sub End If 'add more code to ensure validity of rule number ' -------------------------- ReDim aResRule1(0) aResRule1(0) = c.Value Set re = CreateObject("vbscript.regexp") * * re.IgnoreCase = False * * re.Global = True For j = 0 To UBound(vRule) * * re.Pattern = aRule(1, vRule(j)) * * ReDim aResRule2(UBound(aResRule1)) * * 'move current results to aResRule2 * * * * For i = 0 To UBound(aResRule1) * * * * * * aResRule2(i) = aResRule1(i) * * * * Next i * * 'clear out aResRule1 * * ReDim aResRule1(0) * * For i = 0 To UBound(aResRule2) * * * * Set mc = re.Execute(aResRule2(i)) * * * * * * For Each m In mc * * * * * * * * If Len(aResRule1(0)) 0 Then * * * * * * * * * * ReDim Preserve aResRule1(UBound(aResRule1) + 1) * * * * * * * * End If * * * * * * * * * * aResRule1(UBound(aResRule1)) = m * * * * * * Next m * * *Next i Next j 'clear and write results below WriteResults aResRule1, c.Offset(2, 0), vRule, lSkips End Sub '------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sub WriteResults(res, rDest As Range, Rules As Variant, lSkips As Long) Dim i As Long, j As Long, k As Long Dim res2() 'clear out range for results Range(rDest, rDest.End(xlDown)).Clear 'write rules With rDest.Offset(-1, 0) * * .Clear * * For i = 0 To UBound(Rules) * * * * .Value = .Value & aRule(0, Rules(i)) & _ * * * * * * IIf(i UBound(Rules), vbLf, "") * * Next i * * * * .Font.Italic = True * * * * .Font.Color = vbRed * * i = 1 * * Do While InStr(i, .Value, "NOT", vbBinaryCompare) 0 * * * * With .Characters(InStr(i, .Value, "NOT", vbBinaryCompare), 3).Font * * * * * * .Bold = True * * * * * * .Color = vbBlack * * * * End With * * * * i = i + 3 * * Loop End With * * For i = 0 To UBound(res) * * * * rDest(i + 1, 1).Value = res(i) * * Next i 'check for skips For j = 1 To lSkips Step lSkips 'won't execute if lSkips = 0 * 'move current results to res2 * * * * ReDim res2(UBound(res)) * * * * For i = 0 To UBound(res) * * * * * * res2(i) = res(i) * * * * Next i * * 'clear out res * * ReDim res(0) * * 'combine * * For i = 0 To UBound(res2) - lSkips * * * * If Len(res(0)) 0 Then * * * * * * ReDim Preserve res(UBound(res) + 1) * * * * End If * * * * For k = i To i + lSkips * * * * * * res(UBound(res)) = res(UBound(res)) & _ * * * * * * * * res2(k) * * * * Next k * * Next i Next j If lSkips 0 Then * * Set rDest = rDest.End(xlDown)(2, 1) * * With rDest * * * * .Value = "With " & lSkips & " Skip" & _ * * * * * * IIf(lSkips 1, "s", "") & ":" * * * * .Font.Color = vbRed * * * * .Font.Bold = True * * For i = 0 To UBound(res) * * * * .Offset(i + 1, 0).Value = res(i) * * Next i * * End With End If With rDest.End(xlDown)(2, 1) * * .Value = "End of List of Strings" * * .Font.Italic = True * * .Font.Bold = True * * .Font.Color = vbRed End With End Sub ================================================ --ron Dear Ron, You are correct that it would be better to input the parameters (rule (s) and number of skips) via a user form, instead of multiple Box. It would be great to select the rules and eventually skips. Could you help me with this? Thanks in advance, Luciano |
