I am attempted to set a variable via an Alter Format where a data column matches specific format (in this particular case, a 9 digit zip code where the first 5 characters are digits, then a hyphen, then four digits).
I am not getting the match I expect using this code, please advise:
CASE ( ( Length( the_column ) = 10 ) AND ( matches( '\d\d\d\d-\d\d\d\d\d', the_column)), 'is_9digit_USzipcode',
'is_not_9digit_USzipcode' )
