Replace a string in each line with strings in array

Hi!

How to replace a string in my document with a list of values in an array?

For example for Hello:

dasfasfasfHello Worlddfhhd
fghfjuj Hello USAfgdgfg
asdasd Hello ITALY agfg
asdfHello Francehjm
asdHello Chinahdg

var array = ["Heil","BYE","CIAO","Salut",...]

I want this result:

Code: Select all

dasfasfasf Heil Worlddfhhd
fghfjuj BYE USAfgdgfg
asdasd CIAO ITALY agfg
asdf Salut Francehjm
.
.
.

I'm trying to do this with this code, but I don't know how to read a line:

Code: Select all

function myReplace() {
	var array= [“Heil”,”BYE”,”CIAO”,”Salut”];
	UltraEdit.activeDocument.top();
	
	for (var nVariable = 0; nVariable < 10; nVariable++){   // How to insert length of document?
		var s=UltraEdit.activeDocument.selectLine();
		var t=array[nVariable];
		s.findReplace.replace("1", t);  // how i can do here? 
	}
  
  UltraEdit.outputWindow.write("as");
}
myReplace();

Thanks for help guys.

Here is a script which works without comments as I'm in hurry at the moment.

Code: Select all

function myReplace()
{
   var asWords = ["Heil","BYE","CIAO","Salut"];

   UltraEdit.ueReOn();
   UltraEdit.activeDocument.findReplace.mode=0;
   UltraEdit.activeDocument.findReplace.matchCase=false;
   UltraEdit.activeDocument.findReplace.matchWord=false;
   UltraEdit.activeDocument.findReplace.regExp=false;
   UltraEdit.activeDocument.findReplace.searchDown=true;
   UltraEdit.activeDocument.findReplace.searchInColumn=false;
   UltraEdit.activeDocument.findReplace.preserveCase=false;
   UltraEdit.activeDocument.findReplace.replaceAll=false;
   UltraEdit.activeDocument.findReplace.replaceInAllOpen=false;

   for(var nWordIndex = 0; nWordIndex < asWords.length; nWordIndex++)
   {
      if(!UltraEdit.activeDocument.findReplace.replace("Hello",asWords[nWordIndex])) break;
   }
}

if (UltraEdit.document.length > 0)  // Is any file opened?
{
   // Define environment for this script.
   UltraEdit.insertMode();
   if (typeof(UltraEdit.columnModeOff) == "function") UltraEdit.columnModeOff();
   else if (typeof(UltraEdit.activeDocument.columnModeOff) == "function") UltraEdit.activeDocument.columnModeOff();

   // Move caret to top of the active file.
   UltraEdit.activeDocument.top();
   myReplace();
}
