ValidateEmail
Provides the user with a means of validating an email address. Using the like keyword, checks the email address with a specific pattern and will pick up on invalid chars for example, john.doe@.test.com will return false as would john.doe@com.
Original Author: Chris Priest
Inputs
strEmail - Email address that needs to be checked
Assumptions
The like statement allows pattern matching against the email address.
Like "*@[a-z,0-9]*.*"
This would allow anything before the @ sign, and the first letter after the @ sign must be either a number of letter and somewhere after that there must be at least one full stop
Returns
Boolean value indicating if email address is valid
Code
Public Function ValidateEmail(strEmail As String) As Boolean
ValidateEmail = strEmail Like "*@[A-Z,a-z,0-9]*.*"
End Function
