      Is there a way so i can run a command example.

      If more the 3-4 character match add NAME/ in front of x6128

      Orginal
      x6128k
      x6128m
      x6128c
      x6128m

      When done
      x6128/x6128k
      x6128/x6128m
      x6128/x6128c
      x6128/x6128m

      i have more then 14000 lines so that command will help a lot.

        I hope I have read your question well enough to provide a solution. Please let me know if it needs adjustment due to something not shown in the example.

        Find What: ^(x6128)(k|m|c)(\R?)
        Replace with: \1/\1\2\3

        This is a ‘regular expression’, so in the Replace option in Notepad++ copy the red text into each of the 2 fields. Have the wrap around window ticked and regular expression selected, nothing else. If at all unsure of what it will do, run it by clicking the ‘Replace’ button, not the replace all. Once you are comfortable with it you could select the ‘Replace All’ button. My ‘regex’ assumes a carriage return/line feed is immediately behind the text. If this is not the case you will need to provide a more accurate example.

            Well hopefully you can make other regexs using mine as a template. The regex I supplied is fairly simple to understand, the most complicated part is what we call alternation. That’s the 2nd last bracket. Thats where options exist, it has to be one of those character sets. Although I only have 1 character in each, you can have longer strings, I see one of the examples had 2 characters.

            Try and give it a go using my regex. We like people to at least try. If you can’t get it to work show us what you have tried.

                It looks like you pushed find, if so, it did exactly that. What you need to push is the replace button. If the first and possibly a few other hits of the replace button seem to be doing the job hit the replace all button. If will read the rest of the file and change all remaining occurances that fit.

                Did you try my regex first and check what that looked like when doing 1 change at a time?

                Just remember if at all unhappy with the changes either undo them all or don’t save the file when exiting. Also consider having a backup of the file before making any changes.

                    I took another look at your image. You did not follow my instructions. I said select ‘regular expression’ you did not do that. The regex I supplied needs that to work properly.

                    Also in your example you should have changed the ‘k’ to ‘kr’ which was one you were looking for. Do a search on the web for ‘regex and alternation’, there are sites that will show good examples.

                    It’s good you are trying, you just need to follow instructions a bit better.
