Question

I would like to extract a date which is a string in item.description and the output it as item.date?

Can someone help me?

Answer 1

• Pull out a loop and put a string regex inside it.
• Choose item.description and assign results to date
• What you put in the replace box depends on the format of your date.

For dates like this:
01/01/10
you would put .*(\d{2})/(\d{2})/(\d{2}).*
For dates like this:
01-01-2010
you would put .*(\d{2})-(\d{2})-(\d{4}).*

• in the with box put $1/$2/$3
