You would be better off using the __regexFunction, I think. The GUI extractor component doesn't save all the groups - it only saves the templated result into the reference name variable.
so, you should expect your variable ${testitems} would equal 123366, but you wouldn't have access to the other groups. Which is an interesting thing by itself - how to best provide the kind of flexibility you apparently need? Anyway, you can do what you want with the __regexFunction, so I'd use that instead. -Mike On 11 Jun 2003 at 16:41, Andy Dailey wrote: > For the developers out there, this is a great product.
