I want to get the verision out from a users infostring, but there is a dot after the digit, I can't seem to find a way to do this correct.

local s,e,version = strfind(DATA,"V:(%d+)")

What did you use?
was it;
local s,e,version = strfind(DATA,"V:(%w.%w+)")
I'm curious

kepp

well, i didn't know exactly how to do so first it was
local s,e,version = strfind(DATA,"V:(%d).(%d+)")

Which ofcorse didn't work..
then i took another look in the manual and ended up with

local s,e,version = strfind(DATA,"V:(%d.%d+)")
