UltraEdit, UltraCompare, UEStudio forums

I don't have too many problems with syntax highlighting, though occasionally UE gets confused when I enter stuff outside of ASP code block (close) and (open) tags. Everything goes commented-colored, until I switch to another tab and switch back (then it's ok). Also, some problems with multiple-line ...

Thanks for that, Mofi. Do you think changing the unix-style regex in UE would help as well? It's very bizarre, this problem. You've shown me why it fails... but clearly, the parser is deficient when OR clauses come into the equation. I've taken to using Actual Search & Replace by http://www.divlocso...

It only finds "Connection.Execute" if it occurs on a line and doesn't have any single-quote character before it (i...
