Experts,<br />

Using C# I need to pull a date out of a string. The date format will always be numbers in day/month/year style. Of course the day and months could be 1 or 2 digits each, the years are always 4 digit. I've been reading about regex's but i can't seem to get it right. The string contains lots of words in addition to the date. The date always has at least one space leading and trailing it.<br />
Example: &quot;Here we 7/15/1957 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; down the path&quot;<br />
<br />
Thanks!

How to pull date out of String

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.

.NET Programming

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).

A regular expression ("regex") is a sequence of characters that define a search pattern, mainly for use in pattern matching with strings, or string matching, i.e. "find and replace"-like operations. Regular expression processors are found in several search engines, search and replace dialogs of several word processors and text editors, and in the command lines of text processing utilities, such as sed and AWK. Many programming languages provide regular expression capabilities, some built-in, for example Perl, JavaScript, Ruby, AWK, and Tcl, and others via a standard library, for example .NET languages, Java, Python and C++ (since C++11). Most other languages offer regular expressions via a library.
