Re: [libreoffice-users] regexp function

Hi :)
Is there not some way to identify how far along the letter is through one of the count functions?  
If so then a +1 should give the required value?  

In the interests of "release early and release often" it might be faster for you to 'just' do a 
macro since you already have the skill-set for that.  
Regards from
Tom :)
