ReGex Value between two strings

[alvini (Alvin)]

Hi, I want to get the value between “User Account Name:” and “Request Type:”
I’ve gotten this close, but I’m missing something. Please let me know what it may be. Thanks

Hi @alvini… pls try this

(?<=User Account Name:).*(?=Request)…

Choose Multi-line option in the Matches activity

@alvini
as .* is not spanning over the multiple lines, so we have to take care.
Have a look here:

Regex in between lines

Hey, Can someone help me with a regex to get the text in between “PaymentHistory” and “/PaymentHistory” I need all text in between that. Fully understand I could use xml to do it but would prefer RegEx. Reason is getting the text in xml format is a bunch more steps. Let me know! “-PaymentHistory” “ln literal=“y” No complaints/ln” "ln literal=“y"Nothing./ln” “/PaymentHistory” Had to add in “” to make the text appear “” is actually meant to be < and >

I tried in https://regexr.com/ it didn’t match anything…

Hey ppr,

If I want to get the Name between “for” and “;” which is NISHER HOSE, can you help me find the correct regex expression as there is more than one "for’ and “;” in the string

@alvini
at least as a starter:

And a variation:

I see very close! Technically, if I was stuck there I could just manipulate the string using VB.Net to extract just the name I’m looking to get from that field?
