Can a regex point to a list to find matches

Im currently using a Regex procedure in Alteryx to recognize an employee number in a PDF document and split the document into individual pdfs based on ee number.
RegEx in alteryx flow
Essentially what it does is find the term "Employee" on each page, returns the proceeding six digit number, splits the page out and renames the file using that number. This has, so far, worked fine.
However I have had some errors/kickouts and honestly I want to be more sure about the process, so my question is this:
Is there a way to have the regex point to a list of employee numbers (say in excel) and split the pages based on matching numbers within the pdf file?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The RegEx can't do it, but with Alteryx, just have another data stream that reads the list of Excel numbers, then join your data stream to that. Assume your data stream is the L input, and the valid EmpNo list is the R input. Then:
The L output is invalid data stream records: save these for further analysis.
The J output is valid data stream records: continue processing them.
The R output is valid employees not represented in the data stream; retain for further review if interested.

Automatic list making?

There are bunch of pages of a same website.
the first one is
http://www.theeuropeanlibrary.org/tel4/search?classification-cerif=H000&iyear=[2000%20TO%202010]&offset=20
the next one is almost like the firt,but differs in the number at the last,and is 2 times 20 which is 40.so,the number for the 2000th address would be 2000 times 20.Now hw can i make a txt file containing the 2000 addresses which made out of the first one by
the rule i said above?
I don't have any programming experience,but
i have notepad ++ installed.
Copy the constant string in the first line of the new file in Notepad++
http://www.theeuropeanlibrary.org/tel4/search?classification-cerif=H000&iyear=[2000%20TO%202010]&offset=
duplicate this line (Ctrl+D) as many times you want
position the cursor at the end of the first line
Alt+Shift+Arrow down until the last line
enter the column mode Alt+C
in the popup window, enter the first number (i.e. 20) and the incremant (i.e. 20)
click OK
That's it.

How do I make a cell return a value based on the characters

I have a cell that I want to use and IF statement to tell return information based on characters in the cell. I.E the cell has =M=WRFY, I want the statement to give me a start time based on the day within. I used this formula for the first set and it worked but for the next day it fails.
=IF(LEFT(I44,1)="S",H44,"")
I've tried entering the 2 where the 1 is to make it look at character 2 but its not working. Help!!

Conditional Vlook up without using VBA

I want to convert an input to desired output. Kindly help.
In the output - the columns value should start from most recent (year)
Please click this to see data
Unfortunately VLOOKUP is not able to fulfill that ask. However the INDEX-function can.
Here is a good read on how to use it:
http://fiveminutelessons.com/learn-microsoft-excel/use-index-lookup-multiple-values-list
This will work for you spreedsheet, if your input table starts at A1 without a header and your output table starts at H3 with the first ID.
You get this by copy&pasting the first column of your input table to column H and then remove duplicates.
{=IF(ISERROR(INDEX($A$1:$C$7,SMALL(IF($A$1:$A$7=$H$3,ROW($A$1:$A$7)),ROW(1:1)),3)),"",
INDEX($A$1:$C$7;SMALL(IF($A$1:$A$7=$H$3,ROW($A$1:$A$7)),ROW(1:1)),3))}
Let's look at the formula step by step:
The curly brackets tell excel that this is an array formula, the interesting part for you is: when you've inserted the formula (without curly brackets) press shift+ctrl+enter, excel will then know that this is an array formula.
'error at formula?, then blank, else formula
=IF(ISERROR(....),"",...)
When you autofill this formula you probably dont know how many instances of your lookup variable are. So when you put this formula in 4 cells, but there are only 3 entries, this bit will keep the cell blank instead of giving an error.
INDEX($A$1:$C$7,SMALL(IF($A$1:$A$7=$H$3,ROW($A$1:$A$7)),ROW(1:1)),3))
$A$1:$C$7 is your data matrix. Your IDs (in your case 125 and 501) are to be found in $A$1:$A$7. ROW(1:1) is the absolute(!) rowID, 3 the absolute(!) column id. So when you move your input table those values have to be changed.
What exactly SMALL and INDEX do are well described in the link above. (Or at least better than I could.)
Hope that clarified some parts,
Tom

Append data columnwise in C/C++

I want to add columns of data to a text file, one column in each iteration (one space between each column). If I open file for appending, it adds next column at the bottom of first column. Is it possible to append sideways?
All data isn't available at the start. Only one column of data becomes available in each iteration, and it gets lost in the next iteration.
Consider the file to be one long stream of characters, some of them just happen to be line breaks. Append always starts at the end of the file. If I'm reading you right you need to use seekp(seek new position to put new characters at) on your fstream to get to the right position before writing.
You know the format of your file, therefore you can calculate how much to skip in each line.
Something like this might work:
read line
while line != "":
skip forward the right number of " "
write new column
read new line
