I program in Visual DataFlex. Are there any libraries that I can use to give my programs regular expression matching? It could be ActiveX, or COM, or maybe even just a DLL.

I know that in some languages you can invoke something like CreateObject in VB. I think it is a COM object. So something like :

Dim re

Set re = CreateObject("VBScript.RegExp")

MaxiWheat's answer is probably what you want, but you could also do what the pros do, and use the PCRE library.
