string split results

[codude]

When I run this

str = Red Green Blue \Big\Small\Med

s:=StrSplit(str,"\")
T1:= s.1
T2:= s.2

MsgBox % T1
MsgBox % T2

T1 is good for me but T2 equals "Big". I want "\Big|Small\Med" (With all 3 back slashes). In some cases there may be more or less back slashes. I just want everything after the first one including that first back slash. Thanks

Code: Select all

str = Red Green Blue \Big\Small\Med
a := StrSplit(str, "\", , 2)
MsgBox % a[1]
MsgBox % a[2]

Thanks for taking the time to respond here. I'm getting a error here. "Error: Too many parameters passed to Function" I went back to the AHK String Split page and tried to change a few things but I'm not able to get this.

Update to the most recent version and the error should go away. (I tested it myself on version 1.29)

Latest release is assumed unless otherwise explicitly specified.

If you can't update, you can parse it with a regexp instead.
regexmatch(haystack, "([^\\]*)(.*)", match)

And via InStr. Cheers.

Code: Select all

q::
vText := "Red Green Blue \Big\Small\Med"
if (vPos := InStr(vText, "\"))
	vText1 := SubStr(vText, 1, vPos-1), vText2 := SubStr(vText, vPos+1)
else
	vText1 := vText, vText2 := ""
MsgBox, % "[" vText1 "]" "`r`n" "[" vText2 "]"
return

I've got so much to learn here. I've been trying to get by with 1.21 for years now because I did not want to mess with what seemed like a good thing. I went ahead and updated to 1.30 and the original script from swagfag now works fine and so far everything else seems to be okay. I guess time will tell. Thank you all for the input here.
