Hi, I would like to extract the Salesman # from the OCRed Text. Sometimes the ocred Salesman # and name in the sameline (EX1) whereas some time OCRed the data is splited into another lines (Ex2).

Ex1.

Salesman : 107 - Rajeev

Ex2.

Salesman:

107

- Rajeev

I have created the pattern as Salesman.*?(\d{3}) its work fine in Ex1 whereas in Ex2 it return fail. I need a pattern to extract the Salesman no 107 in both scenario.

Thanks

Ganesh

Hi Ganesa,

Hope this helps - I'm not sure if there are multiple line breaks in your example however the below RegEx should account for both situations.

Salesman[\s:\n]{1,}(\d{3})[\s-\n]{1,}
