I found a regular expression in a pattern I think I need for Social Security Number.
(?!000)(?!666)^([0-8]\d{2})(\d{2})(\d{4})$
My files do not have spaces within the numbers or hyphens.
I want to find all SSN in all. txt document in a specific folder and then replace them with X except for the last 4 digits on right. It would be nice to tell the user how many were found and replaced. (That might be a bit much to ask I know.)
My folder path is here \\shared\e_drive\Process\Scrub.
Can someone point me in the right direction 1)Excecute this expression and find social sec numbers 2)Replace those matches with all XXXX except last 4 numbers. 3) Message of completion. Thanks for any help.
I found a couple similar examples via google but not really the same.
