Hi @Vicky_K ,

If the format is same always, then it is observed that the value is a number and there are no such other areas where a number is observed. Hence, maybe we can shorten the regex to the below :

\d+

Let us know if there are differing formats.

Hi @Vicky_K

give a try with

Regex.Match(inputString, "\d{6}", Text.RegularExpressions.RegexOptions.Multiline).Value

@fernando_zuluaga

@Vicky_K ,

If that is the case, then we can make it more specific to what you need. Check the below regex expression :

(?<=Please enter the following code for verification:)(.*\n)*\d+\b

Expression :

System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Match(yourInputVar,"(?<=Please enter the following code for verification:)(.*\n)*\d+\b").Value.Trim

Let us know if you are not able to get the required output.
