Hello all,

I am trying to parse some data and just started reading up on regular Expressions so I am pretty new to it. This is the code I have so far

String = "MEASUREMENT   3835    303 Oxygen:     235.78 Saturation:      90.51 Temperature:      24.41 DPhase:      33.07 BPhase:      29.56 RPhase:       0.00 BAmp:     368.57 BPot:      18.00 RAmp:       0.00 RawTem.:           68.21"
String = String.strip('\t\x11\x13')

String = String.split("Oxygen:")
print String[1]
String[1].lstrip
print String[1]

What I am trying to do is to do is remove the oxygen data (235.78) and put it in its own variable using an regular expression search. I realize that there should be an easy solution but I am trying to figure out how regular expressions work and they are making my head hurt. Thanks for any help

Richard
