Dear Scott, thank you for your help, it worked really well.
I am a beginner and this task is complex, I need to learn the regex commands.
I do not want to ask, first, I look carefully at the problem.
Thanks, and if you can, I’ll ask you more. -
Dear Friends,
with the specified search criteria, userid=“(NewPC\User\Maya|Computer\Home|XP\Admin)”
I could replace all users. There were only 21 variations and I could find it and type it.Thanks again for everyone!
