Re: Regex to strip out non-numerics but leave decimal point
[:digit:] seems like a lot of typing to just say \d, and why the extra character brackets around the outside? I would do this: reReplace(str, "[^\d\.]", "", "all") less typing = improvement nathan strutz [http://www.dopefly.com/] [http://hi.im/nathanstrutz] On Tue, Jan 18, 2011 at 1:04 PM, Jason Fisher wrote: > > reReplace(rc.hourlyRateInvoicedToClient, "[^[:digit:]\.]", "", "all") > > > A set [] takes all the options in it as options, so escape the . with \. > and you should be good to go. > > > > From: "Nando" > Sent: Tuesday, January 18, 2011 2:09 PM > To: "cf-talk" > Subject: Regex to strip out non-numerics but leave decimal point > > I'm trying to strip out all non-numeric characters from some fields.

re: Regex to strip out non-numerics but leave decimal point
reReplace(rc.hourlyRateInvoicedToClient, "[^[:digit:]\.]", "", "all") A set [] takes all the options in it as options, so escape the . with \. and you should be good to go. From: "Nando" Sent: Tuesday, January 18, 2011 2:09 PM To: "cf-talk" Subject: Regex to strip out non-numerics but leave decimal point I'm trying to strip out all non-numeric characters from some fields. The catch is I need the regex to leave in the decimal point, cuz these are rates that include cents. rereplace(rc.hourlyRateInvoicedToClient,'[^[:digit:]]','','all') I'm not sure how to work something like [^\.] into it. Can anyone help?
