That worked. Clearer answer. The "." in the original looked like a period at the end of your sentence. 😉 Thanks!

Hi.

 

As I said in my original reply:

 

[Matches Regex]  .

 

You should type '.' (without the quotes) -- as I said in my reply.

 

Regex == Regular Expression

 

If you want them in a journal format, open your A/R account.
