    Thank you Peter and guy038,

    Both solutions are very elegant, but I chose to use guy038’s - it works like a champ! This make coding with auto-complete symbols and tags so much easier.

    I cut my programming teeth editing in Wordstar on CP/M machines (ok, my age is showing and many of you young folks have no clue what I’m talking about.) This was before there were cursor directional keys and all cursor movements were done with <Ctrl>-? sequences. I’m a relatively fast touch typist and hate leaving the home row to find <End>, <Home>, <Left-arrow> etc. I’ve also swapped the position of the <Ctrl> and <Caps lock> keys (registry hack) to put <Ctrl> back where God (and IBM) intended to be.

    Thanks again for your help.
    Cheers,
    Russ

    Sorry, I have no host recommendations; my host also doesn’t play with NppFTP’s algorithms, but since FileZilla was already my file-transfer app of choice, it wasn’t that difficult for me to change my workflow from using the NppFTP plugin in Notepad++ to using Notepad++ as the editor-application for FileZilla (as described in my link, above).

    Hi, @publicst, @claudia-frank and All,

    A similar and more simple regex could be :

    SEARCH (?s-i)void method[^}]+for.+?\}

    @guy038 Sorry for being unclear! Sometimes I read my older posts and wonder how people managed to find any sense in them. That’s why I post so rarely…

    Hello @ph0enix, @Scott-sumner and All,

    if the general template of your data is always :

    ........@..........;......

    Here are, below, 3 other possible regex S/R. Similarly to Scott’s post, you must select the Regular expression search mode, tick the Wrap around option and click on the Replace All button. Note that the Replace with: zone is always Empty

    First regex :

    SEARCH (?-s)@.+

    REPLACE Empty

    Results :

    123.456.78.0:22000 12.3.456.789:10000

    Second regex :

    SEARCH (?-s).+?@|;.+

    REPLACE Empty

    Results :

    Name\Name123 NAME\Name-1

    Third regex :

    SEARCH (?-s).+;

    REPLACE Empty

    Results :

    name Name2017

    Best Regards,

    guy038

    Scott, Thank you. I knew there would be a way and I almost knew it would be something in a regular expression, but only gods like yourself would know what to do. I really like the idea of a delimeter and then using the search to match any above and below the line.

    I did not get the chance to try this (although I can’t see why it wouldn’t work) as I thought of an alternative, which was to use Excel and a formula. I managed to open each of my 5 files in one workbook with seperate tabs and use a formula to look at a control tab to find any matches. I think it’s pretty much the same thing as your suggestion, just using vba and not regex.

    I thank you for your efforts

    @C-Ananda-Rao

    Well, when I asked for data, I guess I should have asked for an explanation of that data to accompany it… I suppose I assumed that the phone number was the last part of every line where digits were present. Anyway, hopefully @guy038’s response provides the help you needed.

    Well @John-Drachenberg I’d try and grab the records in the group of 5 lines from the date added to the url line, combining them all into 1 line (so replacing CR/LF) with some other delimiter. I’d then create a "key at the start of the line, possibly the main part of the url, excluding any /folder names. Sort all the lines so that it would easily match up possible duplicate urls. To my mind a duplicate is any url where even if the /folder names/ portion was different would warrant further inspection.

    At this point either eyeball the duplicates, or another regex could mark possible duplicates for further inspection.

    Not sure if you actually want a regex to just remove duplicates in the original file, or would be happy just getting a list of possible duplicates which you could then check against the original and remove manually.
