@Tyson-Swing afaik by using WinGup? Cheers Claudia

@Jalapeno-Bob the problem happens because of the autocompletion function. You either can disable it or change your macro with one additional line (should be placed as second to last line <Action type="0" message="2325" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="" /> which basically means you would press Esc before Arrow down. <Macro name="SQL quoting for VB" Ctrl="no" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="0"> <Action type="0" message="2453" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="" /> <Action type="0" message="2453" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="" /> <Action type="1" message="2170" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam='&quot;' /> <Action type="0" message="2306" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="" /> <Action type="0" message="2451" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="" /> <Action type="1" message="2170" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam='&quot;' /> <Action type="1" message="2170" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam=" " /> <Action type="1" message="2170" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="&amp;" /> <Action type="1" message="2170" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam=" " /> <Action type="1" message="2170" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="v" /> <Action type="1" message="2170" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="b" /> <Action type="1" message="2170" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="c" /> <Action type="1" message="2170" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="r" /> <Action type="1" message="2170" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="l" /> <Action type="1" message="2170" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="f" /> <Action type="1" message="2170" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam=" " /> <Action type="1" message="2170" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="&amp;" /> <Action type="1" message="2170" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam=" " /> <Action type="1" message="2170" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="_" /> <Action type="0" message="2325" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="" /> <Action type="0" message="2300" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="" /> </Macro> This should do the trick Cheers Claudia

OP: Will putting more RAM in your machine help you? How much RAM do you have now? Which OS do you use? When you run the OS how much RAM do you have available?

I think OP wants to make NPP into component that can be used in other languages, like Synedit is a component you can use in Freepascal and other languages, but Synedit is also a full application which uses the Synedit component.

To practice regular expressions go to http://www.regex101.com. You can sign up and store the regex you create, or store them in a public library visible to all users. It’s really neat! It explains every part of the regex for you and has a nice help facility. So it’s great for beginners and advanced regexers.

@David-Kolb from npp’s point of view it isn’t critical. It is open source and you can always check what it is doing. Our main concern was about the plugins which aren’t open source, meaning where only dll is available. Cheers Claudia

@David-Kolb unfortunately there isn’t one. Depending what exactly is needed we could have a python script doing it but if you really want a decent version I would recommend hxd. Standalone, but the best hexeditor I came across. Cheers Claudia

@Nilesh-Vora I don’t have that reported behavior. Could you give us an screenshot and the debug info? Cheers Claudia
