Hi,

I was wondering if somebody can help me out with Selecting and Copying only digits in file:

So I have a text file with one string:
"#164 NEW YEAR 7"

I need to automate copying digits that come after #,
so
in this example it is 164

Im doing it so I can automatically update track number in mp3 file.

Thank you!
