How can i bulk change this

Michael Vv

Hi, i have this section that repeats throught the file: <my_score>2</my_score>
i want to change the number that is in the middle to a 0. How can i do that

@Michael-Vv said in How can i bulk change this:

<my_score>2</my_score>

As stated, it’s quite simple

FIND = <my_score>2</my_score>
REPLACE = <my_score>0</my_score>

If you want a different answer, then you’d better ask again, with more details.

@PeterJones not exactly what i wanted, but i managed anyway since the number in the middle only goes from 1 to 10. But if i had a greater range of numbers how would i do this?

@Michael-Vv ,

I couldn’t tell from your original post whether it would be just the number that would be different (which I was guessing), or whether it would also be the tag text in some way. And whether other requirements would pop up as I kept giving answers. So I gave the most simplistic one, to try to convince you that you needed to provide actual information if you wanted a reasonable answer.

Given you said “greater range of numbers”, then

FIND = <my_score>\d+</my_score>
REPLACE = <my_score>0</my_score>
SEARCH MODE = Regular Expression

The \d means “any digit character”. And + means “one or more”. So it will match one or more digits, and replace them all with a single 0.
