Remove trailing numbers

I want to remove only the trailing numbers from my data

e.g.

financial 2000
production 2001
5th annual reconcilation

should be

financial
production
5th annual reconcilation

I have my rule set defined and want to add this to it...

Any guidance from gurus?

Thanks in Advance
Kewl

A rule like:

Code: Select all

#^
RETYPE [1] 0
should destroy any numbers at the end of the string.
