I have a variable that always has two lines separated by a carriage return (or "return"?). I'd like to split in to two local variables. My feeble attempt did not work. Can someone show me the proper solutions?
Example original variable:
John Doe
5/1/1938-4/5/2018
Goal:
Local_1 = John Doe
Local_2 = 5/1/1938-4/5/2018
You need to use Search using Regular Expression action.
RegEx:
^(.*)[\n\r](.*)
Note that the RegEx allows for EITHER a linefeed (\n) OR a return (\r) as the line separator. Linefeed is the most common today, but you will still sometimes see return used.
BTW, in the future, please put all data in a Code Block so that all characters are properly preserved on the web page.
Questions?
Thank you so much! I'm sure I'll have questions after I try to digest all that you've shared.
