Why not simply use replaceList().

Str = replaceList(str, ".,1st,2nd,3rd,4th,5th,6th,7th,8th,9th,10th,&", "
,first,second,third,fourth,fifth,sixth,seventh,eighth,ninth,tenth, and ")

then str = reReplaceNoCase(str, "^The[[:space:]]", "")

then str = reReplace(str, "[^[:alnum:][:space:]]", "", "all")

Hi All,

I tried to do this regular _expression_, but having a hard time getting the
result I want. So any help would be appreciated.

Here's what I tried to achieve.

1. remove "The" from in at the beginning of the string.
2. replace period with space.
3. Numerals are treated as though spelled out.
4. the string '1st' through '10th' are treated as if spelled out (e.g
first, second..)
5. Ampersands are treated as  though spelled out as "and" and put spaces
between the words and ampersands.
6. Remove nonalphanumeric characters.

Thanh Nguyen
