Sorry I misunderstood.
“123-456-856”.sub( /\d+$/, “999” )
“123-456-999”
/\d+$/ Matches the last numeric digits in the string, since it’s
anchored to
the end of the string, and replaces them with the second argument.

hi…daniel
Its just that the last substr ‘78’ will be replaced with another
string…
like ‘12-34-56-91’…
last_str = ‘856’
string = ‘123-456-123’
the result string should be …
string = ‘123-456-856’
how.???
pls help…
thanks
Daniel: that’s cool, didn’t think of that
