Regex Replace Function

Hi,

 

 REGEX_REPLACE Function to extract particular pattern from end of the string.

 

File path:  C:\Users\XYZ\2018\01\
PreviousMonth: 12

PreviousYear: 2017

Using REGEX_Replace(String, pattern, replace) function want to replace "01" month and year "2018"
with previous month "12" and previous year "2017"

 

Output path should be after using Regex_REPLACE

C:\Users\XYZ\2017\12\

 

Thanks

Hi @sneha_bhiwagade1

 

A combination of Regex, DateTime and Formula tools will do the job:
