Hello

I am trying to using regex to search a hostname that begins with WB has a 13 characters, character number 10 is the "I" character, the last three characters are numbers. 001 - 099.

Thanks

It's not clear is the leading "WB" is part of the 13 characters or not.  I'll assume it is not.  It's also not clear if character number 10 is lower-case ell or upper-case eye.  I've assumed the latter.  If either assumption is incorrect then this regex will need to be adjusted.

| regex "WB.{9}I\d{3}"

Hello;

Thanks for responding.

The leading WB is part of the 13 characters. Character number 10 can be upper or lower case

That changes the regex slightly.

| regex "WB.{7}[iI]\d{3}"
