I need a Validator which makes sure that the Password is not less than 6 characters, I need the RegEx code for it. Thanks.

@MichielvanVaardegem : regex are short and cool ... no more if-else conditions, loops etc required — user240141

@AmitRanjan true, but for checking a length of a string, it is overkill — Michiel van Vaardegem

@MichielvanVaardegem: Case (i) If (Regex.IsMatch(expr)) or case (ii) If(paswd.Length<6) { // some mess} else { //proceed}. ALso sometime we need extra checks for null and empty too. But Incase of regex it will do all for you.. — user240141

@AmitRanjan if(passwd == null || passwd.Length < 6){// error} What is the problem? This is way faster then the RegEx — Michiel van Vaardegem

Your regex should be ^.{6,}$.
