Re: [CODE4LIB] Regex Question
To add on a few things that others have said in this thread: - Another good online regex tool is https://regex101.com/ I really like the testing tools it provides. - Although it's not exactly what you need, Word does have an ability to search by format (it's under the Select menu on the Home tab of the ribbon).

Re: [CODE4LIB] Regex Question
For clarity, Word does regex, not just wildcards. It's not quite as complete as what you'd get with some other environments such as OpenOffice Writer since matching is lazy rather than greedy which can be a big deal depending on what you're doing and there are a couple other catches -- notably no support for "|" -- but it's reasonably powerful. There is no regexp capability in Excel unless you're willing to use VBA. kyle On Tue, Jul 7, 2015 at 1:10 PM, Gordon, Bonnie wrote: > OpenOffice Writer (or a similar program) may be useful for this.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Regex Question
Hi Matt, I don't know much about your docx file, but I've also recently been learning & using regular expressions, and I thought I'd send you a link to a handy tool in case you hadn't seen it yet: http://regexr.com/ I've found regexr extremely helpful while trying to create useful regular expressions. You can tweak your regular expression in regexr and instantly see the results. (They provide some default sample text to search, though you're free to type/paste in your own.) If you hover your cursor over pieces of the regular expression, hints pop up and tell you what each part of the expression does; I've found it useful for learning how regular expressions work. There's also a nice cheatsheet on the left, which sometimes cuts down on how much Googling you need to do. Also, in case this is potentially helpful... here is a regular expression that matches groups of two or more capital letters: http://regexr.com/3bbet Perhaps this will do the trick when searching for words that are in all caps? (I make no guarantees; you might need to fiddle with it a bit.) As for searching for italicized words, I have no idea how to search for them unless they are surrounded by certain tags or signifiers. For instance, perhaps all italicized words are surrounded by tags like this: Some Nice Title. You could search for all phrases surrounded by those tags. But without a textual signifier like that, it's beyond me.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Regex Question
Hi Matt! You can match a string of all caps letters like "[A-Z]". Those brackets say "match anything inside" and the hyphen indicates the full range of capital letters. You cannot, unfortunately, match italics since that's formatting and not text. Regex is really only meant for strings of characters and not their formatting. Lastly, I'd be remiss if I didn't point you to Bohyun Kim's nice intro to regex: http://acrl.ala.org/techconnect/?p=3549 Good luck!

[CODE4LIB] Regex Question
Hi all, I am working my way through teaching myself regex to parse an annotated bibliography docx file and had a question as I can't seem to get a succinct answer from Google. Is it possible to have regex find words, or in the case names, in displayed in all caps? Also similarly is it possible to have regex find words, or in this case titles, that are italicized? Given how the document is formatted doing both would be nice so that I could parse them into a table or or database, but I cannot find a clear answer on that, though I am very new to regex so it is probably jumping into the deep end on this. Any answers are appreciated. Matt Sherman
