------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Jul 23 19:57:05 -0700 2006 ------- Sorry, I'm really not sure where to put this, but as this issue seems to be active and closely related to what I want to report, I'm going to put it here. If it should be filed separately, let me know. First, I want to confirm that a regexp search for [:digit:] does not work--it never matches anything--in Writer as well (2.0.2 on FC5 & XP, 2.0.3 on FC5). I assume Calc and Writer share the same RE library, so this doesn't need to be reported separately. Second, there is a useful workaround: a regexp search for ([:digit:]) works "as expected" (again, tested with Calc and Writer): e([:digit:])? -- finds 'e' followed by zero or one digit ^([:digit:])$ -- finds lines or cells with exactly one digit All(?) of the named classes seem to work this way (I've actually only tested [:space:] and [:digit:]). Third, there seems to be some confusion (possibly on my part) as to the use of the POSIX named character classes: as far as I can determine, the named classes are only special _within a regular character class_, and a bare '[:digit:]' doesn't match a digit at all, but any of the characters 'd', 'i', 'g', 't' or ':'. In order to search for a digit, you have to write [[:digit:]]. This form _never_ matches anything in OOo, even with the extra ()s. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
