Hi Loops,
Thank you for your help.
Tell me if I am wrong concerning the interpretation of your expression: qr(10- KQA-Z0-9*(?!/))i;
1. You are saying find a string (QR)
2. which begins with 10-K or 10-Q KQ
3. followed by any letter from A-Z (A-Z]
4. followed by any number 0-9 [0-9}
5. excluding any string which terminates with slash *(?!/))i
Is that right?
If so, how would the expression change if I were looking for upper case letters only?
Your insight is invaluable, and I am grateful!
Rick

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
