Thanks for that Ron. I don't think I had heard of RegexBuddy.
Looks good. RegexMagic <http://www.regexbuddy.com/regexmagic.html looks
even better for generating REs. Ryan might buy you a copy. ;) ~30USD.


I am very impressed they seem to support a wide variety of RE dialect.
e.g. both the primitive REs of sed and the sophisticated ones of perl.
If I was still being paid to develop software, I would buy both.
Meanwhile, I have noted the reference.

I'm not so sure about Regex Magic. *I've been trying it out a bit, but
I don't know it well enough to do much more than generate regex's that
will accept only a defined range of numbers. *Probably if I became
more familiar with it, it would be more useful to me.


Hello everyone! Thanks for all the help with this. I think Regular
expressions may be the key to solving this puzzle. I've got a bit
more work to do on this. I'll try to get my arms around it by mid
week and post back with a solution as soon as possible.

Thanks again!
