Hi sarah,
This is untested but should work:
QRegExp regExp("(m|c)_([0-9]{6}).rcp");
if(regExp.exactMatch(fileName))
{
//Here we know that filename matches the pattern
QString letter = regExp.cap(1); //Will be "m" or "c"
QString number = regExp.cap(2); //Will contain the six digits as a
string
}
Regular expressions are a vast topic, you will find a lot of documentation
by googling it.
