How to rename extracted values

I have the following data:

Code        Area
1234.1234   ABC
9933.9933   DEF
6611.6611   GHI
8910.8910   ABC
8910.1111   ABC

Search looks like the following:

| inputlookup combined.csv | search Code=* | eval NewArea=case('AREA'="DEF","Opeth",'AREA'="GHI","Danzig") | table Code, NewArea

New output:

Code        Area
1234.1234   ABC
9933.9933   Opeth
6611.6611   Danzig
8910.8910   ABC
8910.1111   ABC

What I also need to do, is if Code equals 8910.* rename it to "Tool" and if Code equals 1234.1234 rename it to "Gojira".

Code        Area
1234.1234   Gojira
9933.9933   Opeth
6611.6611   Danzig
8910.8910   Tool
8910.1111   Tool

Is something like this possible?

You're almost there with your existing query.

| inputlookup combined.csv | search Code=* 
| eval NewArea=case('AREA'="DEF","Opeth",'AREA'="GHI","Danzig", match(Code,"8910\..*"), "Tool", Code="1234.1234", "Gojira") 
| table Code, NewArea

@sb01splunk,

Add those conditions to the case statement.

| inputlookup combined.csv| search Code=* 
| eval NewArea=case(Area=="DEF","Opeth",Area=="GHI","Danzig",Code=="1234.1234","Gojira",match(Code,"8910"),"Tool") 
| table Code, NewArea
---
