You may not need a RegEx if the string is aways the same pattern length wise.
In CF you could do <cfset str = "2005-01-01-05-00-00.000000"> <cfset newStr = Left(str, 10) & " " & Replace(Right(str, 15), "-", ":", "all")> <cfoutput> #str#<br /> #newStr# </cfoutput> Convert to Perl and you're away!

I'm converting some data files that I use to import data into Oracle into files suitable for importing into SQL Server using Bulk Insert, and SQL Server doesn't like the original format. - Rick -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
