    I've been using UE for a few years now, I love it, but I haven't taken it to the next step, or even used its fullest potential.

    I have a file that needs to be changed, and so I figured I could create a macro for this.

    Here is the logic:

    -------------------------
    Find ,
    Replace with ";"

    Goto line 1
    Find " in line 1
    Replace with nothing

    Foreachrow add " to beginning and " to end of row
    -------------------------

    I am not sure how to do the "for each row" part... any suggestions on the macro code?

      This macro should to the job.

      InsertMode
      ColumnModeOff
      HexOff
      UnixReOff
      Top
      Find ","
      Replace All ";"
      SelectLine
      Find """
      Replace All SelectText ""
      EndSelect
      Top
      Find RegExp "%^([~^p]+^)"
      Replace All ""^1""
      UnixReOn

      Remove the last red command, if you use regular expression in UltraEdit style by default instead of Unix style - see Advanced - Configuration - Find - Unix style Regular Expressions. UnixReOn/UnixReOff modifies this setting.

        Mofi, that works great!

        I moved this:
        SelectLine
        Find """
        Replace All SelectText ""
        EndSelect

        Below the RegExp so that the first line would not contain a beginning/ending "

        One more question... :)
        At the end of my file, I have a bunch of the following:

        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""
        "";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";""

        Any way to delete this? It isn't caused from a logic error in the macro, it is the file format that I am using.

          Ah, you want to delete all empty lines of your csv-file. No problem! Add this to your macro

          Find RegExp "%[";]+^p"
          Replace All ""

          This regular expression in UltraEdit style will find all lines which contain only " and ; and will delete these lines. Hope, you do not have such lines anywhere else in your file.

            Mofi,

            I appreciate the time you have taken to help out with these very hard questions (for me).

            I would not have been able to figure this one out on my own ;)
