Trim right digits after last -

kas
8 - Asteroid

Hello,

 

I am using the formula below in a formula tool, but in instances where there are double digits after the last dash, it only removes one. (if I put 2 it will remove the "-" when a single digit). Have tried several different ways without success. Tried a RegEx, but I'm not the most versed with them and didn't get it quite right either.

 

TrimRight([Name],Right([Name], 1))

 

 

 

Current Desired
   
   
Name Name
Fund-Number-9 Fund-Number-
Fund-Name-9 Fund-Name-
Fund-Type-9 Fund-Type-
Fund-Transaction-Amount-9 Fund-Transaction-Amount-
Fund-Units-Sold/Purchased-9 Fund-Units-Sold/Purchased-
Fund-Ending-Units-9 Fund-Ending-Units-
Fund-Unit Val-9 Fund-Unit Val-
Fund-Ending-Value-9 Fund-Ending-Value-
Fund-Number-10 Fund-Number-
Fund-Name-10 Fund-Name-
Fund-Type-10 Fund-Type-
Fund-Transaction-Amount-10 Fund-Transaction-Amount-
Fund-Units-Sold/Purchased-10 Fund-Units-Sold/Purchased-

 

Thank you,

Kim

Try this in a Formula tool

 

REGEX_Replace([Name], "(.*-).*", "$1")
