Had the right answer, but did something dumb and wasted 15 minutes troubleshooting. #classic

So as punishment for doing dumb things, I tool golf-ed it down to 4 tool solution that works for both parts at the same time. 😋

Still loving the new Expression Editor in Multi-Row Formula tool in 24.2!

RegEx and I definitely get along better when I am wide awake... went through way more iterations than I care to admit before I realized what I actually needed to type to get this to work the way I wanted lol.

I was trying to do the subtraction between Dont and Do but get stuck.
So I have do between Do and Dont after adding one more Do at the begining of the Input.
