      Hello everyone,

      I have a simple question, but I couldn’t find an answer in the countless topics I read. Yes, I know it’s my fault and that’s why I decided to ask for help.

      I need to replace

      a) 1111111

      b) 2222222

      c) 3333333

      d) 4444444

      e) 5555555

      with

      A. 111111

      B. 222222

      C. 333333

      D. 444444

      E. 555555

      But I don’t want to do it one by one, because I have documents that have 70, 80 questions. Is there a way to replace them all at once? Whts easy method?

      Thanks,

      Claudio

        My solution would be, using the “Replace” function (search mode is regular expression):
        Find What:^(.)\)
        Replace With:\U\1.
        Click on Replace All. So each character at the start of a line (which has a following )) would be replaced by it’s capitalised version of the letter.
