ignore interpunctation

[Heinz4711]

Hello,

I use Spire.Doc and I need to replace some texts in a DOCX document.

I use this :
document.Replace(old, new, false, true);

But the texts to be replaced my contain "." and "@" characters which leads to some problems (whole word detection).
In Word I can open "Replace" Menu and set "ignore punctation" which solves the problem.

Is it posibble to set "ignore punctation" programmaticylly to true using Spire.Doc ?

Hello,

Thanks for your inquiry.
Currently our Spire.Doc doesn't support ignoring punctuation characters like Microsoft Word when replacing text. And I simulated a Word file and tested your scenario but did encounter any problems. What problems did you encounter when using the replace method?
To help us better understand and investigate your issue, please provide us with your input file, you full test code and your expected output file. Thanks in advance.

In the DOCX document I have the following text:

$SollwertC3H8@64012

I do this :
document.Replace("$SollwertC3H8", "0.12", false, true);

I would expect that the text is not replaced because "whole word" is set to true.
So expected result would be (no replacement of the text):
$SollwertC3H8@64012

But I get is this:
0.12@64012

Obiously the "@" defines $SollwertC3H8@64012 as two seperate words.
If ignore punction is not possible to set may a regex would be possible?

Hello,

Thanks for your more information.
Our Spire.Doc supports replacing text by regex, please refer to the following code snippet. If you have further questions, please feel free to contact us.

Code: Select all

    Regex regex = new Regex(@"^(\$SollwertC3H8)$");
