In looking at the size of the resulting answers it occurs to me that you
might prefer an interim step of a list of all prefixes in use, and the
quantity of numbers available for each prefix?

Hi,

I have a file with catalogue numbers like this : AA00001 to ZZ99999.

Is there a neat way to extract all the numbers available ( not being

used ) for a given prefix ?

eg, the list of numbers available between PE00020 and PF99290, list of

numbers with prefix AZ.

Thanks
