You didn't supply an example expression like that in your initial query. There's an awful lot of permutations of unbounded expressions. You could use more groups and "or" bars? Good luck! -----Original Message----- From: Roger L Costello costello@xxxxxxxxx <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, April 4, 2024 9:03 AM To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Need an XPath expression which returns all xs:pattern elements containing a regex that permits an unbounded number of characters EXTERNAL Hello Edward, >>> matches(@value, '[a-zA-Z]+(\*|\+|\{\d(,.\})?)') That assumes the regexes are all of this form: <xs:pattern value="A*"/> However, there are other forms that permit an unbounded number of characters, such as: <xs:pattern value="[0-9]{3}D*[ABC]"/> That regex permits an unbounded number of D symbols. I need an XPath expression that can detect an unbounded number of characters, regardless of the complexity of the regex. /Roger
