Newbie Query

Here's my regex:

(CM|cm)|(cm)\s\d{1,3}

and here's my target string:

Sub: CM292
Sub: cm400
Sub: XnJ cm 62

First of all, the query is only returning the CMs (upper and
lower
case), but not the digits.  Secondly, I have to believe
I've written
this extremely inefficiently.  Suggestions how to fix and
make more
efficient are greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Dale

u never told us WHAT u want to match - pls do it next time.
Judging
from you regex it's the sequence 'cm + some digits'. if
so then

cm\x20*\d{1,3}

with Ignorecase option ON should do it. \x20 is a white
space.

Your regex matches the strings "CM" or
"cm" or "cm" followed by a
single space and a number with one to three digits. So your
sample data
will only match on the CM|cm part as there is no space
between cm and
the number I suggest

[cC][mM](\s*\d{1,3})?
