HELP!!!!! 1

[sergelaurent]

I have a variable containing the following string:
osqfjqoif2005-06-01-15-42-42313qjnfo2005-06-01-15-42-48095
At the end, I would like to have a list with:
2005-06-01-15-42-42313
2005-06-01-15-42-48095
ONLY.
So I wanted to know which command(s), I can use to do this!!

There are several ways to do it but you need to supply more information. If your string is always so-many characters and the target is always in the same place, that's one way. If the part of the string you want is always a string of numbers with dashes, and those characters don't appear where you don't want them, that's another way.

In fact my problem consists of reading the number the date and time. The exact location of this data is given but I have to convert the size which is coded in unicode caracters into decimal. That's why I have ask the question about the conversion from a caracter to decimal.

Cheers,

regexp {(\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}-\d{2}-\d{2}-\d{5})[a-zA-z]*(\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}-
\d{2}-\d{2}-\d{5})} $a match b c
where a is your input string
