Extracting specific words from a document
Hi,
This is an exact cut paste from the document:
*Fischer Jr, William O
there are a couple thousand of these I need to extract.
I got pretty close and was able to highlight the *lastname,
using the following:\*[a-zA-Z0-9\-_.]{1,}...
I can't seem to get it to capture the Jr, William O etc.
but you need to know, what is following the firstname. Where has Word to
stop highlighting? Is it a full stop, is it a paragraph mark, is it a manual
line break, is it a colon?

Cheers,
Lisa
