Your code states:
Match: one of the following letters: -,b,|,^,b negative look ahead one
of these: -,v,$,|,v
Which isn't what you're looking for. Remember the negating '^' only
works at the start of a [] list. And '$' only means line-end if it's
outside [], inside it stands for the '$' character.
I think this would work better:
b[^v]$|b[^v]\s?

Hello,
i am try to make a regular expression work, but keep getting an error
message
does anyone know how i can make it work?
The query is:
SELECT 'boer bv' REGEXP '[ b|^b](?![v$|v ])';
So it has to match each starting 'b' and all the b's pf following words.
But now followed by a v(line end) or a v followed by a space.
so it should match:
'b test'
'test b'
'test b bv'
'bv b test'
and NOT
'test bv'
'bv test'
Any idea's?!
Thanks, mike
