Mofi, thank you for the different code examples. It would seem that if a person is going to concentrate on learning one type of Expression it would be Perl. I will never have the time to become proficient at more than one. Is this a logical conclusion? What function does the period have in the exspr...

First of all I should have noted that I was trying to add this functionality to an existing macro. Sorry, that was my fault. :| Secondly thanks Frank for showing me how to process the lines without a macro. Thirdly Mofi, it works very well. :) Why do you use Perl expressions over the regular? Many t...

Hello, I want to be able to delete all lines not containing a certain character, in this case an UnderScore "_". If someone can help with this I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance…

Mofi, I appreciate your in-depth comparison between the macros and scripts. I think you've saved me a lot of time by knowing the differences. Best Regards, JH

Is there a general rule of thumb on when to use a script instead of a macro? Can scripts do everything a macro can do and more? I know this question might be hard to give a definitive answer to but if someone could elaborate on the subject I'd appreciate it. JH

Mofi, Thanks for the explanation. I was confused until you explained the ~ function. I appreciate your help. Best regards, Jim

Mofi, Maybe you can explain the the Find MatchCase. It has a ~^ that I can't find a description of. I tested the Find MatchCase and it finds anything that doesn't match the %,(,O,CR,LF. I'm just not sure how it's functioning this way.

Mofi, I appreciate the help. I'll study the macro and try it out. Best regards, Jim

Mofi, First of all thanks for the help. It does exactly what I was asking for. I need a little help understanding this section of code listed below. Also could you provide me with some logic that would re-number a file that does not have preexisting line numbers. It would need to put numbers on ever...

I'm looking for some help to create a macro using UltraEdit-32. The macro would renumber the current file (because it is out of sequence) or it would have the option to remove the assigned line numbers and not renumber the file. The line numbers always starts with an "N" and are normally incremented...
