I have a column of lists of codes like the following.
2.A.B, 1.C.D, A.21.C.D, 1.C.D.11.C.D
6.A.A.5.F.A, 2.B.C.H.1
8.ABC.
So this question is old, but I do have another workaround. I use a double regex so to speak, where the first engine looks for the match as an execute, then I loop through each of those items and replace with a lowercase version. For example:
Sub fixBlah()
Dim re As VBScript_RegExp_55.RegExp
dim ToReplace as Object
Set re = New VBScript_RegExp_55.RegExp
for each c in Selection.Cells
with re `enter code here`
.Global = True
.Pattern = "\b([1-5]\.[A-Z])\.([A-Z])\b"
Set ToReplace = .execute(C.Value)
end with
'This generates a list of items that match. Now to lowercase them and replace
Dim LcaseVersion as string
Dim ItemCt as integer
for itemct = 0 to ToReplace.count - 1
LcaseVersion = lcase(ToReplace.item(itemct))
with re `enter code here`
.Global = True
.Pattern = ToReplace.item(itemct) 'This looks for that specific item and replaces it with the lowercase version
c.value = .replace(C.Value, LCaseVersion)
end with
End Sub
I hope this helps!
