Splitting file in half

Gradius · Jun 22, 2013#12013-06-22T20:56+00:00

I'm trying to make a simple macro. I didn't succeed so far. The problem lies on selecting the lines I want/need, then reallocate it to start of it (almost as splitting in half).

Example:

Code: Select all

Result should be:

Code: Select all

01 = 1000                          01 = 1000
02 = 2000                          02 = 2000
03 = 3000                          03 = 3000
04 = 4000                          04 = 4000
05 = 5000                          05 = 5000
01 = 1000                          01 = 1000
02 = 2000                          02 = 2000
03 = 3000                          03 = 3000
04 = 4000                          04 = 4000
05 = 5000                          05 = 5000
01 = 1000                          01 = 1000

01 = 1000                          01 = 1000

04 = 4000                          04 = 4000
05 = 5000                          05 = 5000
01 = 1000                          01 = 1000
02 = 2000                          02 = 2000
03 = 3000                          03 = 3000

01 = 1000                          01 = 1000
02 = 2000                          02 = 2000
03 = 3000                          03 = 3000
04 = 4000                          04 = 4000
05 = 5000                          05 = 5000
01 = 1000                          01 = 1000
02 = 2000                          02 = 2000
03 = 3000                          03 = 3000
04 = 4000                          04 = 4000
05 = 5000                          05 = 5000
01 = 1000                          01 = 1000
02 = 2000                          02 = 2000
03 = 3000                          03 = 3000
04 = 4000                          04 = 4000
05 = 5000                          05 = 5000

Of course, the number changes all the time, this is just an example, but normally I only need to keep the first 50 numbers in place, and then split from 51 to 100.

Any help is welcome.

For your example the macro was very easy to record.

Code: Select all

InsertMode
ColumnModeOff
HexOff
Clipboard 9
GotoLine 51 1
SelectToBottom
Cut
Top
Key END
"                          "
ColumnModeOn
Paste
ColumnModeOff
Top
TrimTrailingSpaces
ClearClipboard
Clipboard 0

But please note that UltraEdit macros do not support variables and calculations with variables. So the macro can be used only for files with 100 lines. A dynamic adaptation for files with other number of lines would be possible only with an UltraEdit script, but not with a macro.

Thanks a lot Mofi.

I'm aware of the limit, this is what I need at the moment.
