And again, I am having issues with regex. Well basically I want to extract info from a website, and get it in a textbox. <a href="/player/11111">what I want to be extracted</a> So as you can see, the part what says 11111 must be enabled to also extract letters instead of only numbers. I use this code:

Dim mcol As MatchCollection = Regex.Matches(source, "/player/\d+"">(.+)</a>")

How can I make it to extract not only numbers, but both. So it will be enable to extract a MD5 hash?

Kind regards

/\w+/i it will match any alphanumeric character with case insensitive modifier. As we know that MD5 is 32 digit hexadecimal number so the above regex may be useful in your case.
