when I do a find I have a difficult time seeing the line that is found. the color is a yellow border and white background. I cant find how to change this...

help please... Jim

I want to find lines that contain: "space digit digit period digit digit period digit digit period jpg" example " 12.12.48.jpg" the numbers change but are always 2 digits..

I want to replace it with the same string but eliminatie the space before the first 2 numbers.

I have tried for 2 hours ...

Ben, thanks for that very detailed explanation.... I fully understand all of it, but still have one question...

in the last part:
We replace the matched text with
~\1
which is composed of
Code:
~ a tilde
\1 captured text number 1

what would be a "captured text 2"?

I never knew about that posix... Not sure what that means, but it worked great... Thank you so very much...

One question to help me understand.. what does the {2} mean. two digits? if so how does the left side of the decimal work with variable number of digits??? Thanks for taking the time... Jim

I have tried a lot of combinations but have not been able to do this replace.

Each line of the text file is variable in length and ends with an amount that has 2 decimal places and is followed by "\par". Examples: " 158.00\par" and " 9.53\par"

Note the amounts can be a variable number of whole ...
