Thanks, g.  What happened was that I figured it out.  I was missing a \ in the first of the last 4 \d\d\d\d.  So, I figured it out by making changes to the Regular Expression code.  so, I felt ashamed and said never mind. :)  I am patient.  Do a search on jicman and you'll see plenty of posts. :-)

Thanks,
