GREP within paragraph-style: all digits except price

Hi.

 

I want to use only one paragraph-style for a table. In this table there are text and different kind of digits (price, amount, measure, etc.). with the included GREP I only want to grab the simple digits for the number of piecies (top row).

 

The table could look like:

 

quantity | 1 | 10 | 100 | 1.000

price | 1,00 | 2,00 | 3,00 | 4,00

 

 

^(?=\d*\d)((?!,)\d)*$

 

 

That´s how I´ve tried. But It doesn't format the digits behind commas and dots.

 

Any idea?

[ ] are charaters set. So we are looking at ONLY digits and dot one or more time between begining and end of paragraph.

If you use this 

^[\d.]+$

to format the digits and dot, than the everything else is apply by the paragraph style.

Unless you want only digits and comma,  then:

^[\d,]+$​
