Hi Eric,
Here is an example of how to get the values captured by a regex.
*tell* *application* "BBEdit"
*set* vDocument *to* *first* *text document* *of* *first* *window*
*set* vTimeRegex *to* "(?:[01][0-9]|2[0-3]):[0-5][0-9]"
*set* vRegex *to* "^(" & vTimeRegex & ")-(" & vTimeRegex & ")\\h+([A-Z]{3})"
*set* vOptions *to* {search mode:*grep*, starting at top:*true*, wrap around
:*false*, returning results:*true*}
*set* vResult *to* *find* vRegex searching in vDocument options vOptions
*if* vResult's found *then*
*repeat* *with* vMatch *in* found matches *of* vResult
*log* vMatch
*set* vOptions *to* {search mode:*grep*, starting at top:*true*, wrap around
:*false*, returning results:*false*}
*set* vTag *to* *characters* (vMatch's start_offset) *thru* (vMatch's
end_offset) *of* vDocument
*set* vTagMatch *to* *find* vRegex searching in vTag options vOptions
*if* vTagMatch's found *then*
*set* vStartTime *to* *grep substitution* of "\\1"
*set* vEndTime *to* *grep substitution* of "\\2"
*set* vClientCode *to* *grep substitution* of "\\3"
*log* {vStartTime:vStartTime, vEndTime:vEndTime, vClientCode:vClientCode}
*end* *if*
*end* *repeat*
*end* *if*
*end* *tell*
HTH,
Jean Jourdain
