Hi Sonal I hope you realise that if you apply any of the suggested solutions to your string " rahul;6e3-" you will get "rahule" not "rahul". I hope this is what you want. If not we might need to see a greater selection of strings to see if there is a pattern (like - always cut them off at the first non-letter).
