Ok i have changed it to

Code:

(.*)(\d+) -( .*)

but it still doesnt do what i want. Im figuring its something to do with the first bit?

Basically in the TITLE field i have imported a heap of books, now some belong to a series and some dont. the ones with the - contain the series the ones without dont. Now i cant pickup this up at the import stage as i am actually already using the series import as the reading order. The filename is "Readingorder 01 - The Jedi Academy 03 - Champions of the Force" for example and the other is "Readingorder 02 - Darksaber".
WHat i do i import the reading order in as the series, then search replace that to the custom reading order field. Now i am trying to where theres a - split the series info into the series field.
