I need some assistance in pattern matching. I want allow the admin
user to enter a pattern to be matched in my order form editor. When
someone then places an order I want to do a match based on that
pattern. Some of the examples I thought for the patterns are:
######## - must be numeric and 8 digits
AAAAAA - must be alpha and 6 characters
#A? - must be alphanumeric any length
##-A#A - must have two numbers, a dash, a letter, a number, and a letter
I'm sure regular expressions are the answers but I am not well-versed
in those at all and I'm not sure how to make the above patterns work
in or even they are the best examples to use. Any help would be
greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Floyd
