regex to exctract informations

[Bob]

Dears,

I am trying to search and replace strings with regex.

The string is identified by a keyword :

IDImage("1M2345 67");
DescriptionImag e("Desc of the Image 1");

I want to exctract the IDImage (1M234567 ) and the Description.

The ID are characters and numbers, the description too.

Thx,

Bertrand

If the string is always in IDImage("#####" );

Then what about

x='IDImage("### ##");'
print x[9:-3]

Likewise for the Description.
