Hey Rob,

I reckon any given miscalculation can make someone look silly – the trick is to 
not mind too much.

😎

This pattern switches on case-sensitivity and uses Positive Look-Behind and 
Positive Look-Ahead assertions to discover adjacent lower-case-letters and 
(upper-case-letters or numbers):

Find:

(?-i)(?<=[a-z])(?=[A-Z0-9])

Replace with a space character.

As the Perl people say TMTOWTDI 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/There's_more_than_one_way_to_do_it>.

Like many things this level of regex is dead-simple once you know how, but 
learning how takes a good deal of study, practice, and some mentoring.

I've been using regular expression extensively for over 20 years, and I still 
wouldn't call myself an expert.
