Hi Gerry,
re:
>Yes, I think so...
The 8th pattern in parenthesis should be '(gz)$' not '(gz$)' (i.e.,
don't include the end of line indicator in the pattern). Then again,
you could simply list the 'gz' suffix in the FILE value:
FILE WMM5v\1-TAM_\2T\3_\4T\5_\6T\7_gz
Also, given your example:
WMM5v370-TAM_yyyymmddThhmm_yyy1m1d1Th100_yyy2m2d2Th200_DOMAIN1_Z.bin.gz
I think you mean to have:
FILE WMM5v\1-TAM_\2T\3_\4T\5_\6T\7.gz
or
FILE WMM5v\1-TAM_\2T\3_\4T\5_\6T\7.\8

What exactly is your goal? The '$' character is special in regular
expressions, it means the end of the string.
Cheers,
Tom
