Hints to help you
(?i) means case insensitive
[a-z] means a single lower case alpha char
[A-Z] means a single upper case alpha char
[0-9] means a single digit
(?i)^[a-z][0-9]\.[a-z][0-9][0-9][a-z][a-z]\.[0-9][0-9]$
means
upper or lower case for all matches
\. means a literal period character
^ means a match must start at the beginning of a line
$ means a match must stop at the line ending char
thus the matching string must have the same alpha-numeric positions
and be the same length,
white space not allowed, nor commas, quotes, and other punctuation.
RegEx used to be Greek to me, but then I discovered it does not even
closely resemble Greek.

Dear all,
i have to check for an value in the format XX.YYYYY.ZZZ (e.g.
A1.B35AZ.001 or a1.b35az.001)
I have to check if the value is in the right format. I know i can do
that with matchtext and a regular expression, but
i do not know enough to get the regular expression to work.
Is there anyone who might be able to help?
