G'day all
Regular Expression syntax in ReplaceText is driving me a bit loopy right now, I was hoping someone out there could work out what I'm doing wrong...
I want a single RegEx expression using ReplaceText to strip out leading and tailing spaces, leaving any spaces in the middle untouched.
I've got it working in 2 lines of code, but I'm SURE I can do it in one. (I've spent an hour trying to reduce this to one line... I know, why not go for a swim or something more constructive with my time...)
This works:
put replaceText(tSomeText, "^ +",empty) into tFirstPass put replaceText(tFirstPass, " +$",empty) into tSecondPass
But when I try and combine:
put replaceText(tSomeText, "^ ?| +$",empty) into tOnePass
I can't get it to work!! I've tried many variations and the logic SEEMS to be right... obviously not.
Anyone? I'll award the winner with a jar of Vegemite from Australia.
Cheers
