If there’s only ONE string log quantity ( or zero, of course ), in each line of your file, with only ONE space, between the two words, I think that two solutions are possible :

SEARCH = (?<=log quantity ) *\d+ and REPLACE = 1000 with a SPACE, before and after the ending round bracket

SEARCH = log quantity \K *\d+ and REPLACE = 1000 with a SPACE, after the word quantity and after the syntax \K

Notes :

• In the first regex, we look for a possible range of spaces ( *), followed by a non empty range of digits, ONLY IF it is preceded with the string "log quantity "

• In the second regex, we, first, try to match the string "log quantity " and, due to the \K syntax, the regex engine restart the search process. So, we, finally, looks, as before, for a possible range of spaces ( *), followed by a non empty range of digits

IMPORTANT :

• Due to the \K syntax or the (?<=log quantity ) look-behind, this S/R does NOT work, if you click, several times, on the Replace button, for step by step replacement

• You need to us, exclusively, the buttons Replace All or Replace All in All Opened Documents, of the Replace dialog

Best Regards,

P.S. :

If the words log and quantity may be separated by an arbitrary number of spaces, the first regex must NOT be used. Indeed, the syntax (?<=log +quantity ) *\d+ is an invalid regular expression, because the expression log +quantity is NOT a fixed length string, inside a look-behind !

On the contrary, the regex log +quantity \K *\d+ is a correct regular expression :-))

Log+quantity /k(??=lastaccess)

Does anyone know about that…or even a different way to change those amounts only…i have other amounts of other things in the file, so it must change logs only nothing else
