extracting only numerals from string.
Hi!!!
i have two files "tushar20090429200000.txt" and "tushar_err20090429200000.txt"
The numeric part here is date and time.
So this part of file keeps changing after every hour.
I want to extract the numeric part from the both file names and compare them whether they are equal or not.
thanks in Advance....
