          The following works for me:



          clear

          input str25 var1
          "My4Na3me8Is99RI1ch2ard"
          "Th1isI2sA67nEx8am5pl3e"
          end

          generate var2 = lower(ustrregexra(var,"[0-9]+",""))

          list

          +------------------------------------------+
          | var1 var2 |
