G gz7tnn Member Licensed User Longtime User Dec 16, 2014 #1 I am unable to find anything that helps me here. What I want to do is split a string into separate components, where the separator is (eg) ';' The original string will have 3 segments, however one of those will contain at least 2 or more words. Example 1> N172635;Long Handled Hammer;1234 Example 2> Misc999;short stubby hammer with steel handle;989h6 I have looked at regex but as the middle segment of the input string will differ each time I have been unable to create a matching pattern via that method. Any suggestions as to how I can extract the 3 separate components would be appreciated.
