Perl Regex Translation.
Hi,

I am new to perl.
I just inherited a perl script that has this

Code:

while ($input_sequence =~ /( (.)\2{7,} | (..)\3{3,} | (...)\4{3,} | (.{4,100})\5{2,} )/g)

I've been trying to decipher exactly what this translate too.
Can any experts out there help me.

(input sequence contains a bunch of letters and number.

Removing line break character and space from form data

Hi all,

Tricky question. I know how to remove line break characters and spaces by
using the code below:

$message =~ s/\n//g;
$message =~ s/\s//g;

........... how do you do it if you do not want to remove the first line break??? - but then remove the rest. So in other words, you want to skip the first line break.

Thanks in advance,
mccalla

Report Export to Excel Memo field truncates (512 chars).

Hi,

I am very new to MS Access. I have inherited an existing app which was done in MS Access 2003. In this app, there is a report which contains a memo field. There are no formats, functions, unions, or anything. It is populated from a simple select. The problem is....when the user exports the report to excel, it seems to be truncating this memo field after 512 chars. After that, there appears funny chars that look like tiny squares....
