      Hi everyone,
      I have a text that is organized like this using punctuation “|” from the closest example:

      hello: one|three|two|four|
      
      *" or sometimes the form comes in numbers, not letters"*
      
      hello: 1|3|2|4|
      
      

      is there a possibility to move words or numbers from the second position to the third or vice versa.
      to became like THIS:

      hello: one|**two**|**three**|four|
      
      *" or sometimes the form comes in numbers, not letters"*
      
      hello: 1|**2**|**3**|4|
      

      I used “**” to mark the changes
      thank you

        find : (three|3)\|(two|2)
        replace with : $2|$1
        search mode : regular expression

          Thank you, it has been fixed using some other form, with:

          hello: +(?:\w+\|){N}\K(\w+)\|(\w+)
          

          to replace with

          $2|$1
