Once again: could you specify criteria? Maybe say which ones below should be matched? I tried to change one thing in every string: stl_genoa_cet_300color-46-13-03.BIN.xml (1st block changed) rtl_genoi_cet_300color-46-13-03.BIN.xml (2nd block changed) rtl_genoa_cit_300color-46-13-03.BIN.xml (3rd block changed) rtl_genoacet_300color-46-13-03.BIN.xml (no 3rd block) rtl_genoa_cet_400color-46-13-03.BIN.xml (4th block, number changed) rtl_genoa_cet_300bw-46-13-03.BIN.xml (4th block, type changed) rtl_genoa_cet_300color.BIN.xml (no dd-dd-dd block) rtl_genoa_cet_300color-99-99-99.BIN.xml (dd-dd-dd block changed) rtl_genoa_cet_300color-46-13-03.USR.xml (name after '.' changed) rtl_genoa_cet_300color-46-13-03BIN.xml (only one '.' in string) rtl_genoa_cet_300color-46-13-03.BINxml (no '.'s in string) rtl_genoa_cet_300color-46-13-03.BIN.png (last block (extension) changed) There are many more possibilities, but I hope you get the point. I (we) have no idea where the matched string must be exactly the same. Tell us.	[reply]

I think that `/^rtl_genoa_cet_300color-4\d-13-0\d\.BIN\.xml$/` will do what you asked. Probably it doesn't do what you meant... Updated. This is shorter... Rule One: "Do not act incautiously when confronting a little bald wrinkly smiling man."	[reply] [d/l]
