in thread How to detect non printable characters and non white space characters? [RESOLVED]

Hello Eily

You are absolutely right, I should have used and instead of or. I thought about it when I was testing my code, but it was failing.

The reason is straight forward on my and condition I was using the white space condition and since it was matching this condition it did not even care to check for non printable character. Now that I am thinking about it makes perfect sense.

Thank you for your time reading and replying to my question.
