Hello all! Thank you for stopping by.

I looked and looked all over the internet on how to accomplish this but I can't seem to find anything. I also tried to figure this out on my own and can't get it to work correctly.

I'm trying to extract verse numbers from a bible TXT file. The verse number consists of the chapter number and verse number for example:



1:1
1:10
1:100
10:1
10:10
10:100
100:1
100:10
100:100

The number on the left hand side of the colon can contain 1 or 2 or 3 digits and the same thing for the number on the right hand side of the colon.

Any ideas of how the wildcard would look like? Thanks bunches and appreciate your time.

Find & Replace (with "Use wildcards" option ticked). In the find box enter <[0-9]@:[0-9]@>

Hope this helps
