RegEx to return 1 or 0 whether the tested value is empty

Guys,

I have a need of replacing the content of the tested value with 1 or 0,
depending if the value has content or not. 1 for value, 0 for empty. I would
like to accomplish this thru a regular expression. Does somebody have an
idea on how to do this?

Regards,

I'm not sure I entirely follow - could you give an example of how you'd
like it to look. Also, it doesn't sound like a regular expression is a
particularly natural solution - could you explain why you want to use
one?
