I have many Titles as 2014-01-10, 2022-10, 1, 003, 09, etc...

I would like to search the 'title' column for any non date titles and format / change them to 4 digits.

For example titles 1, 003, 09, 44 would all become, 0001, 0003, 0009, 0044.

I'm assuming that I can do this with regex and the search and replace dialog?

Thanks!
