Search for string value Without converting to array

[rafael.assis16]

How do I go through a string to search for a value (Format: Variable = value\tVariable2 = value2), Without converting to array.

Hi Rafael,

use SearchString function to look for your "variable", then parse the value after the "="...

I need to limit the search to \ t (tab), how do I?

You could also use Match Regular Expression

Hi Rafael,

I need to limit the search to \ t (tab),

Why? (According to your other thread you should search the whole string…)

To answer your question:

1. Search for tab and keep the substring before the tab

2. Search your "variable" in the substring and get the value after the following "=".

Excellent, could you give me a website to better understand Match Regular Expression?

I need two types of search, one going through the arrays and another the string, so I'll have two options if necessary.

Just use the Help built into LabVIEW.  You can access the proper page via the Context Help or right-click on a Match Regular Expression and choose "Help".
