Hi, I would like to know hot to define the texts beginnig and end.
I have got :
Attribute: Adressen_kalkuliert_drop_loc
D-L-143245-143245-F-45--1xMICRO-DUCT-12x10-6MM
D-F-422-F-471--1xMICRO-DUCT-12x10-6MM
(a tousands of them)
and need to define Attribute Value:
L-143245 (from the first one) and
F-422 (from the second one)
the texts are always different, and have a different number of numbers
But beginns alway with "F", or "L" and ends always with "-" behind the number.
thanks

You can try a StringSearcher with the regular expression [L|F]-\\d+ but on both lines of sample text it will actually match more than just that. If you create a list of matches and grab the first item it will probably be what you want.
For more security, try the regular expression ^D-[L|F]-\\d+ and then a StringReplacer afterwards to replace regex ^D- with nothing.

Perfekt! It worked great!
Thanks a lot

A small correction. [L|F] matches not only L or F but also | (pipe), so this expression would be better.
[LF]-\d+
or
(L|F)-\d+A small correction. [L|F] matches not only L or F but also | (pipe), so this expression would be better.
[LF]-\d+

(L|F)-\d+Thanks for catching that, I *thought* I knew a bit about regexes...
