Hi @Viswadeep,

 

If you want to filter on exact value, you could use a Filter tool with a formula like the following:

 

[valueToCheck] IN ("I5.5","Q45.3","I765.3","Q78.99")

 

Where [valueToCheck] is the name of the field you would like to filter on.

Regex_match([field],"\u\d+\.\d+") should work for you.

Thanks mark, 

 

It worked, i need to add on a few things

Data like the below

"-SBI35.2/HLQ34.0" "-SBI35.4/HLQ34.1"

 

I am able to build on from your expression and able to filter out the below data using 'Regex_match([F1],"-?\u+\d+\.\d+")'

"-SQI70.1"

 

So how do I add on that "/" to filter that out in the same expression

 

Thank you
