- Apologizes if this was covered elsewhere; I know very little about encoding. For years I've been using what I call "Alt codes" (I think that's the right term). When I hold down the key Alt and type a series of numbers on the keyboard number pad I'll get certain symbols. This avoids me having to go t...Posted in UltraEdit General Discussion

- First of all, double clicking on the error in the output window which takes me to the line, is BLEEPING AMAZING. That's so incredibly useful. Thank you! Second of all, as always, thank you for the incredibly thorough post. Lastly, I configured UltraEdit as you suggested; unfortunately, when I 'run' ...Posted in Custom User Tools/Tool Configuration

- I read the post about Python that was recently bumped and that helped quite a bit getting me to where I am now. But I'm just not quite there yet, I think. It might be a lack of understanding on my part about how UE works with external compilers and such. I'm running Windows 10 64-bit, latest version...Posted in Custom User Tools/Tool Configuration

- Thanks for confirming, Mofi. I hate going back and forth to the keyboard all the time. If I never had to use a mouse I'd be soooooo happy. :)Posted in Find/Replace/Regular Expressions

- I'm new to this latest version of UltraEdit, so please forgive the newbie questions. I have a couple questions about the search function in UE v28.10. When I want to find something I very rarely don't utilize some options of some kind. Currently I have to hit Ctrl+F twice to get the Find and Replace...Posted in Find/Replace/Regular Expressions

- Hey Mofi, As I've plugged away at this task over the past week, I've realized how much incredibly useful information is packed into this thread. I cannot thank you enough! This has been a lot of fun as well; I'm learning a lot. Figuring out negative lookbacks over the weekend helped, and most rec...Posted in Find/Replace/Regular Expressions

- So many explained expressions will not work with UltraEdit v14.00+2. Yeah, I was getting that impression. I appreciate you guys trying to help me despite my old version of software. :) Being a non-programmer (professionally) I just can't justify updating the software when it still works quite we...Posted in Find/Replace/Regular Expressions

- OK, I was about to post this, that I'm getting closer: ^([^\r\n\,]+)(,)([^\r\n\,]+)(,)(.+)(\r\n) \1\2\3\4"\5"\6 But once it "fixes" that line, the search engine goes backwards, which of course is undesirable. So your post, fleggy, thank you for your help! I just discovered, somewhat by accident, t...Posted in Find/Replace/Regular Expressions

- I'm definitely struggling with this; very sorry for being so obtuse. Using the information above, I'm now working with a new comma delimited file that I want to modify as follows: First group: The beginning of the line until the second comma. Second group: The next character after that comma whether...Posted in Find/Replace/Regular Expressions

- I am having troubles setting this up. I thought this would work: .+ " .+ " .+ " which is basically any character(s) followed by a quote followed by any character(s), and so on, but it doesn't. I would appreciate your help. Thanks! I am using UltraEdit for Windows 14.00Posted in Find/Replace/Regular Expressions
