`/"\(\w+\)"\/` [download] In this regex, the '(' and ')' (parenthesis) characters, which would normally be regex metacharacters marking the start and end of a capture group, are escaped by \ (backslash) characters that return them to being literal '(' and ')' characters. Again, see muba's analysis above Update: ...and reply below. (Missed that last \. Bad case of backslashitis.).	[reply] [d/l]

Not to mention the backslash that escapes the forward slash that's supposed to mark the end of the regex. `/...\/` should read `/.../`.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

You need to reread dreadpiratepeter's node again: Re^5: separating two sententences. Your input file just needs a split on the semicolon to get the two columns, then a regular expression to remove the quotes. Print those out separated by a comma or tab, and then Excel will read the file	[reply]
