I have used TextPad for some time, but am new to using Wildedit. I see this regex post is pretty popular. Is there a good link that I can reference to learn what some of these syntax's are? Example: The Regex code for a space or multiple spaces.

I would appreciate any help that can be give.

I will anticipate that you will be told to get hold of:

While you're waiting for the O'Reilly book to be delivered :wink: you can get by with the following RE:
[[:space:]]+
(from Reference: Regular Expression Syntax, in WildEdit's help.)
