regular expression

[yehia]

i have an invoice and sub invoices in the same file

stated as 1234#1234 for main invoices and sub invoices for it 1234#1235, 1234#1236 , 1234#1237

i wanna capture only main invoices

i got this regexp "[[:digit:]]+#[[:digit:]]+" but that captures all

i need to capture only the ones with same numbers ex: 1234#1234

thanks alot

#include <array.au3>
Local $a_sre = StringRegExp("adkd 1234#1234 1237#1235 1236#1236", "(\d+)#\1", 3)
_ArrayDisplay($a_sre)

yehia,

Try this - it returns all 4-digit numbers followed by # and the same 4 digits:

#include <Array.au3>

$sText = "1234#1234 1234#1235 1234#1236 1234#1237 5678#5678 5678#5677 5678#5676 5678#5675"

$aResult = StringRegExp($sText, "(\d{4})#\1", 3)

_ArrayDisplay($aResult)

You will have to reconstruct the full 4#4 form.
