RegExp

When using the RegExp object

when I do an execute, and it returns no matches, how do i test to see if it had no matches or not? Example

set RExp = new RegExp
gw = "4:00 -6"
RExp.Pattern="h"
Set Matches = RExp.execute(gw)
For Each Match in Matches
Response.write "Text " & match.value & " found at position " & match.firstIndex & "<br>"
next

This won't print anything, now how do i check to see if it didn't, so i can print so? I'd rather not use test, i'm sure there's a way to check to see if it's value is -1 or something but i can't quit seem to figure it out, anyone know?

I've viewed it, i figured since it was a general RegExp usage question and no posts of Regular Expression or RegExp have been done before, it was a suitable name, sorry, i'll be more descriptive next time, but hey, at least it's better than "i need help" or "vb problem". And the more specific the name gets it seems it gets less and less views, no one wants to help these days....
PS. If it were up to me, i'd change the name of the forum to Onslaught's Help Desk

lol
although your title was close, one word titles just aren't descriptive enough.

As far as the amount of help this forum gets, it is relatively new and there seems to be more people requesting help than there are who can help. I, myself, have not used the regular expression object in vb or I would have also responded with an answer for you.
