Well, we don't have a high enough TR on our 7.1 system for me to test
this directly, but I tried it in Python, which I think should behave
the same in this case.

The search may not be returning anything other than success or failure
unless you have something to capture. It's telling you it found the
pattern, but that's all. To return the digit, try surrounding the \d
in parens:

'(?<!a)(\d)(?!a)'
