hello all,

Required:
1:2:3:4

way it is in textpad:
1:
2:
3:
4

P.S : the delimiter is ":"

If someone knows how to get this done using "F8", please pass on the command.

I had once searched and knew the command as well..I dont remember it now.So i am very sure that there is a command...

Thanks,
RL

You have posted this in the WildEdit forum but you refer to TextPad.

Assuming you are asking about TextPad:
Find what: :\n
Replace with: :

[X] Regular expression

Replace All

My suggestion does not add lines; it removes them. Please read it carefully and try again.
