Re^2: String replacement with regex...

Okay, so I thought it was working, and it is... But too expansively.

Using
$buffer =~ s/varchar\s*$(\d+)(??{$1<256})$/TEXT/i;
as my replacement function, I'm getting conversions on this column, for some reason...

Discrepancy_Filename VARCHAR (40) NULL

becomes

Discrepancy_Filename TEXT NULL

Ideas?
Thanks,
amonotod

Odd...it works fine for me. Would it be possible for you to post a snippet of code that shows it not working? Brad	[reply]
