Re: extracting date information from string

Stam - where's the smiley for {wild applause}?
It just occurred to me that a date may be inside parentheses and not be preceded by a space… to cater for this just change the first operator \s to [\s|\(]
In other words the date should be preceded with a space or “(“.
I’ve not tested this exhaustively - if you encounter any issues/missed dates this can probably be adjusted to account for edge cases, just post the text that includes the date, or you can do this yourself using what I do: https://regex101.com/
Hope this helps
