Hello,
Not exactly sure what you mean by "The RPG manual", but... RPG does not
have built-in support for regular expressions, and therefore, none of
the IBM-supplied RPG manuals have regular expressions in them.
The Regular Expression support built-in to the operating system (which
is in the ILE C Runtime Library) does not support the expression you posted.
RPGLanguage.com is YOUR web site. It appears to have some regular
expression software available for download, but that's not what the OP
(Mike Smith) was trying to use. I think it would be clearer if you say
something like "Mike, if you want to use \d and \W character classes,
you can download the REGEX program from my web site at this link...."
The way your message was stated, it sounded like you were telling Mike
that the docs on rpglanguage.com described IBM's regular expressions
software, rather than a separate download from your site.

I would use
\d(2,3)\W\d(2,3)\W\d(2,3)
\d(2,3) looks for either 2 or 3 digits.
\W looks for a single non-alphanumeric character, i.e. your separator.
This is from the RPG manual and is also on rpglanguage.com
