Regular expression validation??

[bob323]

I have a file upload box and I want to make sure that the file listed in the file path is a .doc file. I was trying to use the validate expression "^[\w-]+\.(doc)$" but that doesn't work because the file path may contain a series of slashes (eg. "C:/Files/file.doc").

Any ideas how ti make this work??

I may not have the answer to this BUT what you are looking for is to let the compiler take the "C:/temp/Somefile.xls" literally.

Try adding a @ === (@"C:/temp/Somefile.xls"). I havent tried it before BUT i read it on MSDN that the @ directive instructs the C# compiler to take the literal sense of it.

Let me know if it works
