Hi,

 

I am trying to only show the roman numeral only but now its showing both 4 IV at the end of Pay Name- I think I have to correct this formula or add another formula to remove this -please help

 

elseif Contains([Pay name], " 2" ) THEN [Pay name]
+ 'II'

elseif Contains([Pay name], " 3" ) THEN [Pay name]
+ 'III'
elseif Contains([Pay name], " 4" ) THEN[Pay name] + 'IV' ELSE [Pay name]

 

 

is this part of a larger formula -  am sure it is from this part though

 

thanks!!!!!

, "02") to add after the 2 in the above? etc for 3, 4, etc

Yup. you could also swap the replace for regex_replace - swap the replace term to '0*2'  - which means any number of 0's (including 0)

@hi2019  I'm really confused from your post. You are asking for help, the guys here asking that you will share some data from your end. Even a snippet of the data that you are trying to transform, so any of the solutions that the guys were giving you are like walking in a dark ally where you cannot see anything. If you want to get help help us to understand what you are facing and what you would like to achieve.

You are right! 

He is asking a question that not telling anything.

its so odd

 

 

it grabs and does it for half of them but I cannot see why its not grabbing the other ones ! I dont see different spaces in them?

 

Also, for the way to grab any amount of 0 inbetween - do I put that in both sectiobs of where the 2 is?
