Well, go ahead. You have our permission to do that.

Or, in other words: you seem to have forgotten to ask a question.

Solution 1

Try this to separate them:

^(?<LHS>.+?),(?<RHS>.+?)$

You can them compare the groups.
Me? I'd use string.Split on both strings, then just write a if...else - regex is a good tool, but there is no good reason to use one for this task.

Can you please share with example. i am poor in regex

OriginalGriff 15-Dec-20 11:06am

Don't use a regex! They are very good at text analysis, but they aren't a processing mechanism: yothe code is much, much simpler and more maintainable with just a split and a tiny bit of code!
