title: Regular Expression with no final dot pattern
body: <p>I need to evaluate in VBScript Word macro links without selecting a potential ending dot (end of a sentence) such as:</p>
  <ul>
  <li>http://www/foo.com/mypage.php <em> (no ending dot) </em></li>
  <li>http://www/foo.com/mypage5.php. <em> (with ending dot) </em></li>
  </ul>
  <p>I have set this regex with works fine in a regEx testing page but return a runtime error 5692 on character ^ (is not valid special character for ...)</p>
  <pre class="lang-vb prettyprint-override"><code>pattern = &quot;((http|https)?:\/\/)?([a-z|0-9])([\da-z\/\.-]+)\.(\S*[^\.])&quot;
  </code></pre>
