i am trying to insert a "#" in front of any line that has "299" in the 63rd space of the row

i can find the lines using ^.{63}299
i can't grasp how to then tell textpad to insert a # at the beginning of the line without deleting any of the existing information.
i have looked through the forums but have had no luck.

replace with

Code: Select all

#&

& in the replacement box (with regex search enabled) stands for complete match.
