How do you pad out a series of numbers with leading zeros? Like for instance
the series is
.1.
.2.
.3.
.11.
.42.
.98.
and you want them to be
.001.
.002.
.003.
.011.
.042.
.098.
I know how to find them, using the fact that they appear as shown between
two . characters, but then I don't
Hi Peter,
Here's a possibility. Perhaps someone can come up with a shorter
version.
constant dot = .
function formatDottedNumbers
set the numberformat to 000
set the itemDel to dot
repeat for each line myLine in myData
put dot item 2 of myLine * 1 dot cr after myNewData
end

You can use the format function. For example:
answer
The same thing
answer format(%_3s,1) ??
instead of a zero use a dash would work so that you could make numbers line
up that are in a field left aligned instead of right aligned?

I know how to find them, using the fact that
answer format(%03s,1)
will display 001 (the 3 means pad with zeros to 3 places). So if the
decimal points in your number series are intentional, you could make a
function like:
function padNumbers pSeries
repeat for each line tNum in pSeries
put . format(%03s,char 2 to

My solution, among the many:
function paddedList pList
put into tPadding
Just for diversity's sake, I have often used a function like the
following:
function zeroPad pText,pLength
repeat max(0, pLength - length(pText))
put 0 before pText
end repeat
return pText
end zeroPad
put zeroPad(13, 4) = 0013
put zeroPad(5, 4) = 0004
etc.

My previous example used a flavor of RegEx not supported by Rev.

Christian,
I didn't totally understand your question, but Rev has several ways to
match text. RegEx, which is a tiny language imbedded into Rev, will
match just about any pattern you want, including da without matching
das or Mandant or even Da if you want. Here's how in Rev-RegEx:
