<p dir="auto">Here is the data I currently have (“before” data):</p>
<pre><code>SelectSpells(c213ca01-3767-457b-a5c8-fd4c1dd656e2,1,1)
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">Here is how I would like that data to look (“after” data):</p>
<pre><code>SelectSpells(c213ca01-3767-457b-a5c8-fd4c1dd656e2)
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">Sometimes there is something after the two digits. What I need to delete are the two digits so that it looks like this at the end</p>
<pre><code>SelectSpells (StringsOfNumbers)
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">To accomplish this, I have tried using the following Find/Replace expressions and settings</p>
<ul>
<li>Find What = <code>SelectSpells[^&gt;]\d,\d</code><br />
<code>SelectSpells[^],[0-9],[0-9]</code><br />
<code>SelectSpells[\a+][\d 0-9],[\d 0-9]</code><br />
And many more I don’t remember</li>
<li>Replace With = None yet.</li>
<li>Search Mode = Regular Expression</li>
<li>Dot Matches Newline = I don’t know what that is, sorry</li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto">I thought it would work because my friend who’s better at computer thought it would as we’re checking the user manual, but we’re stumped</p>
<p dir="auto">I’d appreciate any help, thanks</p>
