From strings such as these ...
int(11)
varchar(45)
datetime
.... I am trying to extract just the type and length; i.e. for the type I want ...
int
varchar
datetime
.... and for the length I want ...
11
45
NULL
I can get the type using ...
(\w+)
.... but I haven't been able to get the type and length. What I think should work is ...
(\w+)(\((\d+)\))?
.... gets no matches at all,not even the type.

I knew that I wasn't a regular expression expert but I thought I could handle something this easy.

Thanks for any help, advice, sympathy anyone can offer.

Bob
