Hello ,

 

Trying to clean up below string using regex using expression (\w+)  : 

 

RE 001705 20004658.SE0008 VOLVO LOGISTICS AB ARHK-4, DEPT 5325, ARK 1 ...

 

While doing so the higlighted text is splitted into two strings 20004658 and SE0008 . 

 

I would like to retain as  20004658.SE0008 . Any help .

 

Thanks

Hi @aatalai ,

 

I think this will fail if output1 and string after output 2 is changed .
