Serch for "numbers"?
-
I have a long txt file with filnames.
I need to search for files which names are fx.
summer1.2019.21.11
summer2.2019.21.11
summer3.2019.21.11What do I need to use instead of ‘?’ ,so I can search for summer?.2019 and get every filename, when they have a different number somewhere in the name…
-
How about
summer\d\.2019? -
@Alan-Kilborn does not work… :-(
-
did you check regular expression in find dialog?
-
@Ekopalypse yes…
-
then either your real data must look different to the one you posted
or your cursor is at a position which doesn’t have such filenames afterwards.Note, in regex there is a hugh difference between summer1… and summer11…
-
@Ekopalypse Sorry, it work with summer etc… but my files name are HH2009D.2019 or. HH2001D.2019 - so I need the “wildcard” \d\ before the letter d… can that be an issue??
-
Yes, of course, Alans regex can be described as
search for summer
followed by one digit (\d)
followed by a literal dot (\.)
followed by 2019which doesn’t find
HH
followed by digits (all of them or only the last one?)
followed by D
followed by a literal dot (\.)
followed by 2019 -
@Ekopalypse I can see if I use HH200\DD\.2019 it works… :-) Thank you…
-
Attention,
\Dand\dare different.
\dis a digit
\Dis not a digitMore about regex and its syntax can be seen here.
