Hi Victor,

An option is to use after/before modifiers to isolate the value:

Infact the RegEx you wrote will find both the third and fourth segment of your string.

This RegEx will only find the last segment:

Code: Select all

(?!\s)([0-9]+\.[0-9]+)(?=\))

It will exclude the space before and the ) at the end in the result but look for them in the search.

I use a great tool to write the RegEx and it gives you instant feedback on what you do.
