Hello all,
I am struggling with something and I have yet been able to find anything
that may help me.
I have a string like follows:
string = "\"bloggs, Joe (JBloggs, INFO)\" joebloggs, \"bloggs, Bill
(BBloggs, INFO)\" billbloggs"
I want to break this string up into two entries using a _ seperator, one
for Joe and the other for Bill. I could do this with a simple
string.gsub(",", "_")
However the problem with doing this is that there are commas elsewhere
in the string. So what I need to say is, if the comma is outside of ""
(quotes) replace it with the _
Could anyone possibly help me with this?
Thanks
