Hi,

 

I never thought about how the VIN works. Now I will know for the rest of my life 😀

Good times with the REGEX and Joining to tables.

Bit disappointed with this one. I added complexity when it wasn't needed, for example, the Find Replace block would have worked perfectly, whereas I added in some RegEx. Will try and do better with these simple processes next time.

Just some light reading and creating some text input tables to reference and this was a breeze!

Trick was on me because I entered the weight wrong for one of the positions. Ooops! All worked out once I corrected that little doozie.
