word processing regex: add result to variable

[archel]

Hi

Maybe there is a reason for the following, but if you go to
-> word processing -> regex
and you check "first", then below, you can "add result to variable".
That's good because I want that.

Though, when I want to take the second match, via Match No., then you can only "add result to list".
Which I don't want.

Is there a possibility that both options are available, whatever you select? Or maybe this can cause errors?

Let me know. Thanks.

You have to use 3rd option: One match (Sorry i don't have English version now)
It's before match number )

Oh. Nice. Thanks.

Hmm, how can you add all matches to a variable then?

 

[rostonix]

Add all matches to list
List processing - Merge

Ok, that works.

Though, it would be a little enhancement if you could do it without needing to make a list.

I agree with this. Sometimes its a pain having to create 2-3 lists just to prep & save data. I know there's reasoning behind this, just having difficulty seeing what that reasoning actually is.
