Hi,

I'm looking for a Regular Expression which will convert a string in the following format: Atp3233A into 3233A
So it should only trim the alpha characters preceding the numeric characters.

With my current code, I get 3233 instead of 3233A

Code: 
<cfset StringtoTrim = "Atp3233A">

<<cfset NewString = REReplaceNoCase(StringtoTrim,"[A-Z]+","","ALL")>

Thanks in advance.

Try:


<<cfset NewString = REReplaceNoCase(StringtoTrim,"([A-Z])+$","","ALL")>

The $ should denote the end of the expression
