      I have multiple files where the output file shows hours from 1 to 9 as single digits, and all other hours as double digits, and need to convert all clock hours to double digits, so exhibit a)

      08/08/2020,9:20,00:50,Forged In Fire 7,ITA
      08/08/2020,10:10,00:50,Forged In Fire 7,ITA

      would become exhibit b):

      08/08/2020,09:20,00:50,Forged In Fire 7,ITA
      08/08/2020,10:10,00:50,Forged In Fire 7,ITA

      Is there a simple command to do this?

        Hello @sean-perry and All,

        I suppose that this regex S/R will do the trick !

        SEARCH \b\d:\d\d,\d\d:\d\d

        REPLACE 0$0

        And, generally speaking, this other regex S/R should work :

        • With any delimiter, after the minute digits :

        • With, either, the syntaxes #:##, #:##Del## and #:##Del_1##Del_2##

        where Del, Del_1 and Del_2 represent delimiters

        SEARCH \b\d:\d\d([[:punct:]]\d\d([[:punct:]]\d\d)?)?

        REPLACE 0$0

        Best Regards

          You are correct, that did the trick and saved me a lot of time. Thank you!
