Fetch particular words from a String

Hi,

 

I want to know that is there any Regex logic to select only the Red color marked texts from the records?

Hi @EN6924 ,

I do believe you would need 2 different regex logic, as the last 2 rows do not have a consistent pattern with the first 6.

Regex expression for first 6 rows:
.*\s(\w+)

Regex expression for last 2 rows:
.*\s(.*\s\w+)

Hope this helps :)

I do not believe so since when you read in the data from excel to Alteryx, that color formatting will get dropped.

Agree.
There has been a discussion and come to understand that it seems not possible to bring the formatting of Excel into Alteryx.

Hi,

 

It's not about the color. I was trying to extract the texts (Highlighted in red color) from the string records and putting in a new column.
