I realized that and updated one works :)

And in the solution above, last \D+ can stay \D+ instead of \D* because "ms" is two letters, and \D+ gets at least one so it also matches two but not matches zero occurrences (as opposed to \D*, which does)

right, but that solution won't match a line that ends with "123ms456ms789" .. (if you're strictly following OP's 'match 3 numbers' requirement and not using the ":ms" formatting at all)	[reply]
