      (?-i)^(?: +*+ [A-Z][A-Z0-9 ]+ *+\R)(?:.*\R){1,25}(?: +*{4} WARNING - THE REMAINING +[0-9]+ INCREMENT(S) OF THE LOAD STEP WILL BE IGNORED)$

      This did the wonder, thanks for the help man on my own i would never been able to figure this out. I am new to notepad++ will appreciate if you can share some learning material to start from basics.

      Thanks a Lot.

        (?i-s)(.*\R){12}^.ignored.\R

        The screenshot looks fuzzy but i had entered the same equation that was been mentioned by @guy038.

        Will go through the FAQs for sharing data and will understand how to post on this.

        I tried the final Regex :

        (?i-s)(.*\R){12}^.*ignored.*\R

        Thanks for actively resolving the issue i was facing, will appreciate if u can share some learning material to start from the basics.

        Thanks & Regards,

            Hello, @sam-rathod, @peterjones, @mkupper, @alan-kilborn and All,

            I suppose that dealing with files with important size may lead to this regex message, even if this regex does work properly with small files :-((

            So, @sam-rathod, could you try with this new regex version :

            SEARCH/MARK (?-is)^(?:.*\R){12}.*IGNORED.*\R

            Best Regards,

              Hello,

              If i have range of text for example

              "This is the specific text in the document that i will search"
              Line1 that dont want marked
              Line2 that dont want marked
              
              Line3 that dont want marked
              
              Line 1 want to mark
              Line 2 want to mark
              Line 3 want to mark
              Line 4 want to mark
              Line 5 want to mark
              
              ""This is the specific text in the document that i will search"
              Line1 that dont want marked
              Line2 that dont want marked
              
              Line3 that dont want marked
              
              Line 6 want to mark
              Line 7 want to mark
              Line 8 want to mark
              Line 9 want to mark
              Line 10 want to mark
              

              The output i am expecting

              Line 1 want to mark
              Line 2 want to mark
              Line 3 want to mark
              Line 4 want to mark
              Line 5 want to mark
              Line 6 want to mark
              Line 7 want to mark
              Line 8 want to mark
              Line 9 want to mark
              Line 10 want to mark
              
              ^.*This is the specific text in the document that i will search.*\R(?:.*\R){5}((?:.*\R){5})
              

              Tried various option but unable to skip the lines as everything after specific text is getting marked.

              Regards,
              Aa

                Hi, @sam-rathod and All,

                I do not understand clearly what you want to achiveve !

                Given this INPUT text, below :

                "This is the specific text in the document that i will search"
                Line1 that dont want marked
                Line2 that dont want marked
                
                Line3 that dont want marked
                
                Line 1 want to mark
                Line 2 want to mark
                Line 3 want to mark
                Line 4 want to mark
                Line 5 want to mark
                
                ""This is the specific text in the document that i will search"
                Line1 that dont want marked
                Line2 that dont want marked
                
                Line3 that dont want marked
                
                Line 6 want to mark
                Line 7 want to mark
                Line 8 want to mark
                Line 9 want to mark
                Line 10 want to mark
                

                And let’s suppose that you’ve previously bookmarked all the lines with the Line #..# want to mark syntax

                Then just use the Search > Bookmark > Remove Unmarked lines option and you’re left with the following expected OUTPUT text :

                Line 1 want to mark
                Line 2 want to mark
                Line 3 want to mark
                Line 4 want to mark
                Line 5 want to mark
                Line 6 want to mark
                Line 7 want to mark
                Line 8 want to mark
                Line 9 want to mark
                Line 10 want to mark
                

                Best Regards,

                guy038

                  No i am not able to bookmark only the specific line that i want mark.

                  Basically i want to find a specific text , ignore 4 lines after it and mark& select 5 line after the specific text & 4 lines.

                      Hello, @sam-rathod and All,

                      Ah, OK. Now, I understand all the story !

                      Just note that you should have put your text as raw text, using the </> indication when replying and not pasting an image. Indeed, even with a OCR plugin, within my favorite graphic viewer, I was not able to convert the letters of your image into raw text :-(( This explains the delay of my reply !


                      So, with this kind of INPUT text :

                      
                       SACS CONNECT Edition V(15.1) - CL                                                        Company: .

                                                                    RELATIVE TO MUDLINE ELEVATION
                         LOAD  LOAD              FX           FY           FZ           MX           MY           MZ
                         CASE  LABEL
                                                (KN)         (KN)         (KN)       (KN-M)       (KN-M)       (KN-M)
                                               
                         127  7119             -125.62      -190.83     -4342.63       4582.3      -3032.8      -1382.1
                         128  7120                0.54      -212.18     -4388.18       5164.0        863.9      -1432.1
                         129  7121              111.01      -159.93     -4333.70       3602.5       4267.7      -1399.5
                         130  7122              202.80       -78.61     -4340.74       1053.9       7076.4      -1374.5
                         131  7131              264.55       -39.54     -4341.04       1111.7       8733.7      -1299.3
                      

                      Just use the search regex, below, in order to mark the expected lines :

                      SEARCH / MARK (?-is)^.+SEASTATE COMBINED LOAD CASE SUMMARY.+\R(?:.+\R){5}\K(?:.+\R){5}


                      Notes :

                      • Note that I use non-capturing groups (?:.......), instead of capturings ones (.......), for each block of five lines.

                      • Now, after the complete line containing the string SEASTATE COMBINED LOAD CASE SUMMARY, with this exact case

                      • And the five lines that follow,

                      • The \K syntax cancel any previous search, so far

                      • So, the next five lines are only taken in account by the regex engine and marked


                      Method :

                      • Open the Mark dialog ( Ctrl + M )

                      • Uncheck all box options

                      • SEARCH / MARK (?-is)^.+SEASTATE COMBINED LOAD CASE SUMMARY.+\R(?:.+\R){5}\K(?:.+\R){5}

                      • Just check the Bookmark line, Purge for each search and Wrap around box options

                      • Select the Regular expression search mode

                      • Click on the Mark All button

                      • Now, you may either :

                        • Copy all these bookmarked lines in an other new tab with the Search > Bookmark > Copy Bookmarked Lines option

                        • Click on the Copy Marked Text button and paste the clipboard contents in an other tab

                      Best Regards
