c# Regex Valid Dates (without following digits )
I am using Regex Magic but I cannot isolate the Valid Dates.
My regular expression for this is
(?:3[01]|[12][0-9]|0?[1-9]
This was enough for me if I had not the following issue
1.95 with my regex returns 1.9 but this is not valid date for me because has a digit following it. I think there is a way to prevent this but I cannot get there!

Sorry Terry, but the look behind not working! Can you try it?
It's only included for the dates with format:
123.10
If you have format:
123 October
Then you'll need a modified pattern. Is that the case you're talking about?
If not, then which case is failing?

123.10 is failing! I removed the < in the (?!<\d) and it works apparently!
Apologies; I got the < and ! the wrong way around. It's corrected here:
(?<!\d)(?:3[01]|[12][0-9]|0?[1-9])[/.-](?:1[0-2]|0?[1-9])(?!\d)|(?:1[0-2]|0?[1-9])[/.-](?:Jan|January|Feb|February|Mar|March|Apr|April|May|May|Jun|June|Jul|July|Aug|August|Sep|September|Oct|October|Nov|November|Dec|December)|(?:3[01]|[12][0-9]|0?[1-9])[ \t]+(?:Jan|January|Feb|February|Mar|March|Apr|April|May|May|Jun|June|Jul|July|Aug|August|Sep|September|Oct|October|Nov|November|Dec|December)ASKER
