>>How would I go about doing this? Hi, This is really a job for CF_REextract. See http://www.contentbox.com/claude/customtags/REextract/testREextract.cfm Then try it with your sample on line: http://www.contentbox.com/claude/customtags/REextract/testingREextract.cfm - Enter [^(]*\(mid:[[:space:]] in field RE1 - enter \),? in RE2 - enter your sample John Smith (mid: 1000), Peter Pan (mid: 87), Harry Harrison (mid: 173), in the sample text area, - click the Test button,... et voilà!
You get a query with the names in column string1 and your numbers in string2. -- _______________________________________ REUSE CODE!
