Sorry Wayne - didn't see the end of your mail

To have a list of 'allowables' use:

@REGEX EXPR=[^A-Za-z0-9!$]+ STR=@VAR string TYPE=E position=all

Here I'm allowing anything alphanumeric and ! and $.

All other characters will return a match.

If I can be of further assistance please contact me.

Subject: Witango-Talk: REGEX revisited


 I asked previously about a regular expression to capture any
 non-alphanumeric characters in a string and someone at Witango (Tarin or
 Fergal I think) was kind enough to offer the solution.

 @REGEX EXPR=[^[:alnum:]]+ STR=@VAR string TYPE=E position=all'


 Of course now the problem has grown and the clients strings that are
 comprised of alphanumerics and certain other characters such as : / \ etc.

 Can someone assist me in adding these options to the list of allowables?

 Thanks
