LibreOffice windows - extract numbers only from a long list of text and numbers

[mahadev]

Hi I wonder how I can perform in LibreoOffice this extraction…
using windows with Version: 4.2.2.1

I have LONG list like this…I have all in 1 cell in a spreadsheet…

24991 CIGUERA 24991 LOIS 24991 SALAMON
24991 VALBUENA DEL ROBLO 24994 BURON
24994 LIEGOS 24995 LARIO 24995
POLVOREDO 24996 ACEBEDO 24996 MARAÑA
24996 UÑA, LA

I need to extract the numbers only or delete the text…dont know if there is a better text manipulaiton software to do this or if libreoffice/open office can do it.

output should be

24991, 2499, 24994

thanks for your help

Paste the string in a cell,
open search and replace dialog (ctrl + f)
extended search option
mark regular expression
search for
([\s,0-9])([^0-9\s])+
and replace it with
$1

hit replace all (us a seperate document for not accidentally replacing something different!)

now you get a list like
24991 24991 24991 24991 24994 24994 24995 24995 24996 24996 24996

to replace mutliple withespaces (e.g. ibetween 24991 24994) search for
\s+
and replace it with
,
to get the comma between.

(sorry, hadn’t used regex for a very long time so there might be a one-time replacement search and replace possiblity)
