Can't we directly compare against regexp

[anu05446]

if "Document 12456 was posted" = "Document \d+ was posted" Then   Print "Yes"else    print "No"end ifthe above code shows No, can't we directly compare against regexp??? I know how to match using RegExp Object, but isn't the direct comparison possible??is there any property we need to set as True??I'm using UFT11.5.

Regular expression is not used for comparison rather it is used to identify objects of similar patter.

Anshoo Arora, in Relevant Codes, demonstrates how to use regular expressions for select method for a listbox.

You might be able to modify his code to what you need.

He has another nice article at http://relevantcodes.com/qtp-all-about-t...on-create/
