How to filter a range of dates in emeditor


How can i use Advanced Filter to extract a range of dates from a Column (eg: Btw 25/09/2021 & 27/09/2021) in Emeditor?


Solution

  • Please use multiple regular expressions combined with Logical Disjunction (OR) to filter a range of dates.

    For example, if you want to extract dates from 23/07/2021 through 30/07/2021, you can use:

    2[3-9]/07/2021 OR 30/07/2021

    EmEditor - Advanced Filter

    There are some articles of regular expressions for a range of dates:

    However, the advantage of using EmEditor is that you can define several regular expressions and combine them using Logical Disjunction (OR), so that search expressions can be simplified.

    It is possible that EmEditor might support date ranges natively in future versions.

    Updates: v21.2.901 (and later) supports date ranges natively.
