My vote:

.*:\([^:]*\):.*

Anything including null, a colon, any number of things that aren't a colon
(expr 1), a colon, anything including null.

       OK, I am pulling my hair out and I figure some of you have had quite
a bit more experience with this than I have. Here's what I'm trying to get
the regex expression in Witango to do:

       I want to process all records with a memo field containing :anything
here:

       Now, I'm selecting records and processing an array applying the regex
expression to the appropriate field. I'm using the following command:

       <@REGEX EXPR=":{1,}[.]+{1,}:{1,}" STR=.. (you get the idea)

      This expression is accepting anything that has at least one : in it. I
really want the field selected if it two : in it. So for example I do not
want Title: but I do want :Title: I don't want :important

    But I do want :important:

       What am I doing wrong in the above code?
