I have a string of data...
"123456712J456","D","TEST1~TEST2~TEST3~TEST4~TEST5"
I want to take the following string and make 5 strings.
"123456712J456","D","TEST1"
"123456712J456","D","TEST2"
"123456712J456","D","TEST3"
"123456712J456","D","TEST4"
"123456712J456","D","TEST5"
I currently have the following regex...
//In a program like Textpad
<FIND> "\(.\{13\}\)","D","\([^~]*\)~\(.*\)
<REPLACE> "\1","D","\2"\n"\1","D","\3
//On the regex101 site
"(.{13})","D","([^~]*)~(.*)
Now if I run this 5 times it would work fine. The problem is there is an unknown number of lines to be made. For example...
"123456712J456","D","TEST1~TEST2~TEST3~TEST4~TEST5"
"123456712J457","D","TEST1~TEST2~TEST3"
"123456712J458","D","TEST1~TEST2"
"123456712J459","D","TEST1~TEST2~TEST3~TEST4"
I was hoping to be able to use a MULTI capture group to make this work. I found this PAGE talking about the common mistake between repeating a capturing group and capturing a repeated group. I need to capture a repeated group. For some reason I just could not make mine work right though. Anyone else have an idea?
