Reply To: Indesign grep – Applying character style to a letter on the third tab

Hi Jeremy im back at work. Hope you had a pleasant weekend, thanks for getting back to me. You are correct there is always a ‘£’ in the 5th final tab

I have tried your grep expression and assumed that perhaps the asterisk was a wild card and changed it to ‘H’. . i also messed about with your grep at regxr changing variables but no joy.

Perhaps my example of tabs aren’t really showing well when i paste them into this post message, using the above as an example i will annotate below if it helps?

1ST TAB: SH10
2ND TAB: Advanced Screen for MSM
3RD TAB: FCRU, PCR Swabs x 2, B (need to change variables in this tab, grep required for this line)
4TH TAB: 4 hours (changes sometimes hours, sometimes days)
5TH TAB: £00.00 (always price at the end typically no more than 2 or 3 decimal points i.e £21.00 or £176.00)

Im not sure i fully understand how to implement this grep, just when i seem to think i have some understanding i realise i don’t. Apologies if i’ve over engineered this post.
