Hi all
I have checked the provided auto translation rule in memoQ 8.2 for German numbers, but it apparently doesn't catch dates.
I have tried to create a new rule that converts the American date (month day, year) into German dates (day. month year), but have failed, most likely because my knowledge of regex is very rudimentary.
Can someone help me please? Or point me to where I can find such a rule?
Thank you!!!
Kind regards
Anke

Figured it out! Oct 5, 2017

Ok, I figured it out!
Here's the solution for converting US dates (month day, year) into German dates (day. month year):

(#Monat#)\s+(\d{1,2}),\s+(\d{4})

$2. $1 $3

#Monat# is a list of the months written in full from English into German.
