Regular Expression Assistance

Pattern Matching and Regular Expressions
Updated May 7, 2020
asked on May 7, 2020

I'm sure this is a simple expression, but I'm struggling.  I'm trying to create a new token value that contains everything except the trailing date.  I need the token to contains everything in bold (after the last space).

Thanks!

I'm assuming that the text you provided you have already captured in a pattern

You could use this to exclude the date as one option

[^\d{1.2}/\d{1,2}/\d{4}]

 

Or something like this 

(.*)\s\d/\d{1,2}/\d{1,2}

Thanks Steve!  I think this is 2nd time you've provided expression help.  Appreciate it!

I hope to get better over time, practice, practice, practice :)

FYI, I think there is a mistake in the second one, it just happened to work

(.*)\s\d{1,2}/\d{1,2}/\d{4}
