Re: Pattern Match/Trim Variables.

in reply to Pattern Match/Trim Variables.

"MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM:SS.XXX" and remove ".XXX" that's it. This directly translates to perl:

s{^
   ( #capture
     \d{2} #MM
   / \d{2} #DD
   / \d{4} #YYYY
   \s+
     \d{2} #HH
   : \d{2} #MM
   : \d{2} #SS
   ) #stop capturing
  \. \d{3} #XXX
$}
{$1}x #replace by captured

Have you read perlrequick and perlre?

OK after taking time and looking at what you said has greatly helped... I began to think about how the code works and looked at your information and it worked great. Thank you...
