Metadata Search for Non-Numeric Characters

asked on January 23, 2017

I'm trying to search a metadata field and want to find any results that have any are non-numeric characters in them.

For example, I searched as *[a-z]* and *[A-Z]* and found some results with letters in them.

But I want to find any results that have any non-numeric characters.  I know I can't use full-blown RegEx in the search, or I think I could have resolved this already.

Any suggestions?

Thank you!

You should be able to do this with a regular expression:


Searching the 'Abstract' field for any non-numeric characters:
{[]:[Abstract]="*[^0-9]*"} & {LF:LOOKIN="lfiche\IT\Test", SUBFOLDERS=1}

Of course!  The ^ excludes values.  Thank you so much @████████
