>>I am using regular expressions to mask some data and I'm bout 95% there. I have one little issue though. I want to be able to mask the victim names in our reports. They are entered as "Vic: Lastname, Firstname". I would like to be able to identify this pattern, and only show the lastname. Anyone know how that might be done?
