Arunima_S

Hi,

 

I am trying to split a column right before "AT" followed by a digit using Reg Ex. Example:

 

Input:

Field 1
aeccr53424drgef32453AT102030fanewors
 
wedx253wdasdfkjreAT0203103wec244255v
 
kerthwATjeeydkAT230193ertogisnfslae

 

Output:

Field 1Field 2
aeccr53424drgef32453AT102030fanewors
  
wedx253wdasdfkjreAT0203103wec244255v
  
kerthwATjeeydkAT230193ertogisnfslae

 

Can you please help me with an expression that I could use to achieve the same?

 

Help is very much appreciated!

 

Thank you!

@Arunima_S — Attached workflow has both the methods — (1) When "AT" is followed by 6 digits, (2) When "AT" is followed by any digit

REGEX Parse (.*)(AT\d.*)  should work

Hi @Arunima_S , You can try this

Regex-(.*)(AT\d.*)

 

The regex will work for the following pattern having AT follwed by digits and then some string.

 

Thanks.
