Macro Expert Needed! Convert two Columns into one

drlittle · Post by **drlittle** » Mon Jun 10, 2013 11:25 am

Find what: (.{72})(.+)(\n)((?s:.)*?\n)(\n)
Replace with: $1$3$4$2$3$5

[X] Regular expression

Replace All -- do this repeatedly until it beeps

This works, I will need to Macro this as I have over 200 pages; a lot of F8's!

Thanks for your patients. I will improve my forum skills.

Regards, Dave

I'm glad to hear that, contrary to what you wrote before, my suggestion does in fact work.

It's not a lot of <F8>s. It's one <F8>. It's a lot of <Alt+A>s, as I stated three times in bold italics in my first and fourth posts in this topic and as you can see in the copy in your last post.
