Hi list
I was hoping someone would be so kind as to help me with this.
I have a CSV file and on every line, I have a line like so:
lts.dat|somedata
lts001.dat|somemoredata
I basically would like to ONLY get the name of the file before the first
pipe.
I was thinking that the regex would look something like so
/^*\|/ # Get the beginning of the CSV file, extract the filename, to
#the first pipe
but I need to extract and pass the value to a variable.
Would anyone have any tips or advise on this.
Kind Regards
Brent Clark
