Hi Team,

Hope you are well. I have column with text (which ends with RU and which doesn't).

i want a new column with all the text and the last two RU in another column.

 

Please let me know,

 

thanks,

Sri

Hi @sriniprad08,

 

Could you clarify the logic for row 7? It does not end with "RU" but still has "RU" in the Test 2 column.

Please check this regex expression

^(\w{8,11})(\w{0,2})$

Hi @Zok ,

 

Thank you so much. this is great. But one issue its also truncating the RU in the middle  of the text. Only it has to truncate the last two letter.

Hi @alexnajm ,

 

Sorry that was a type. There shouldnt be RU for that text.

 

Thanks for pointing out.
