      When trying this Regular Expression REPLACE “^20…” with “<td>&</td>” .
      That is, surround every occurrence of a line beginning with 20 and the following 2 characters with “<td>” and “</td>” ---- the result, does the “surround” but replaces every “20…” with the character “&” . It should not replace any of the “20…” simply surround them.

      This works, tho, in TEXTPAD.

        Use $0 instead of &.
