Conditional replacing

Mario Enrique Martínez Durán

Hello everyone!

I have a .txt file separated with commas (,). In some cases, there is a field containing data like “7,5 cm”, making an extra field. How can i replace the commas with dots to avoid extra fields, but don’t replacing the separators?

Thank you!

by using a regular express like

find what:(\d+)(,)(\d+)
replace width: $1\.$3

Means it is looking for any number of digits followed by a comma and again digits

To find out more about regular expression I would recommend reading
nearly every post by @guy038 and the regex engines details as described here. In addition sites like http://www.rexegg.com/ and https://regex101.com/
are useful too.
