Hi

I have a requirement where i need to clone oppportunity when a custom field is blank and stage is 'ready'.
Number of opportunities to be created by cloning from primary opportunity depends on a custom field called 'Number needed'

If number_needed__c = 10,then i want 9 opportunities to be created.

Name of each opportunity should be same but need to appened different number.For example:Primary opportunity =opportunity-need 1
then rest should be opportunity-need 2,opportunity-need 3,and so on..,

Any help on how i can get this?
I need some start up.Please help.

Thanks and kudos in advance.Please.

The strings I am parsing could have any one of the characters below in them.

This is what I am using:
