Hello Januk Aggarwal !
On Fri, 26 Jan 2001 22:51:34 -0800 GMT your local time,

PMFJI, I have a question concerning your regex. As I told in one of my
postings earlier I started to learn regex. So there are some questions
every now and then. Sorry for that!
I divided your regex in parts, which I can and can not explain.

What does this mean? Is the meaning of "?" in brackets different? Isn't
this SubPatt1 by definition?

> (^Credit\s*Card.*?$)
Find any word starting with "Credit", followed by 0-inf. whitespaces,
followed by the word "Card", followed by any character, occurrence 0-inf.
Again the "?" which normally means 0-1 occurrence of the character, but
this doesn't make sense here to me. Definition of ?All is stored in a
SubPatt .
> .*payment\s*of\s*
This could be explained as the last paragraph; I omit this.
>(.*?\n)
Here we are again: "?". At least: it has to be followed by a newline to be
matched.
>"%REGEXPBLINDMATCH="%TEXT"%SUBPATT="1"%SUBPATT="2"
Well, obviously the first bracket-pair does not give value for the first
SubPatt. So it has to have a different meaning.
Could you give me a hint? TIA.
If this is too special for this mailing-list (maybe this belongs to
TB-Techie), please let me know. Thanks !
