Hello,

I have created a rule that renames my credit card statement, moves it to a folder and also runs an AppleScript that creates a calendar entry in Fantastical based on the Due Date from the statement.

For this calendar entry, I also was wanting to include the amount due. On my credit card statement, it shows the following:

New Balance <spaces> $1234.56

Is there a way to grab the dollar amount ($1234.56, in this example) and store it so it can be passed to my AppeScript? The obvious problem is that this amount, and hence the number of characters, can change every month.

Thanks in advance for your help.

You can use a custom attribute/match pattern to match that. You can specify a pattern like $(number).(digit)(digit)

Thanks Mr. Noodle. I just realized that a number like the one in my example would have a comma, so it would be displayed as $1,234.56. Any thoughts on how I can do that? I think I would have to build 2 scenarios somehow - one when the number is $999.00 or less and one that is $1,000.00 or more.

Thanks.

Yes, you would have to have two conditions to match those different scenarios. Alternatively, you can use "anything" to match everything between the $ and .
