    from Npp import editor1, editor2
    
    replacements = dict(line.split('\t') for line in editor2.getText().splitlines() if line)
    
    def replace_with(m):
        return replacements[m.group(1)]
    
    # search_for = '(?<=<UWI>).+?(?=</UWI>)'
    search_for = '<UWI>(.+)</UWI>\R\h*<WellType>\K.+?(?=</WellType>)'
    editor1.rereplace(search_for, replace_with)

        Thanks again for your help.
        For some reason this time it isn’t working.
        I will try and fix it.

          Can you open the PythonScript console (plugin->PythonScript->Show Console) to see if there is an error?
          The replacement file has company and gas/oil tab separated, correct?

            @Ekopalypse here is the log.
            I think it is because not all the wells need to be changed, so the first one in the file (Aery #B1H) does not appear in the second file, so the script is stopping. I will try leaving all wells, even those that doesnt need to be changed

            Traceback (most recent call last):
            File “C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\plugins\Config\PythonScript\scripts\find_replace.py”, line 10, in <module>
            editor1.rereplace(search_for, replace_with)
            File “C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\plugins\Config\PythonScript\scripts\find_replace.py”, line 6, in replace_with
            return replacements[m.group(1)]
            KeyError: ‘Aery #B1H’

            And yes, the other file is separated by tabs.

              Yes, that makes sense then we need to take another approach where we
              create the searches based on the second list. Gimme a minute

                  depending on the file size a faster solution might be this

                  from Npp import editor1, editor2
                  
                  replacements = dict(line.split('\t') for line in editor2.getText().splitlines() if line)
                  
                  def replace_with(m):
                      company = replacements.get(m.group(1), None)
                      if company:
                          return replacements[m.group(1)]
                      else:
                          return m.group()
                  
                  # search_for = '(?<=<UWI>).+?(?=</UWI>)'
                  search_for = '<UWI>(.+)</UWI>\R\h*<WellType>\K.+?(?=</WellType>)'
                  editor1.rereplace(search_for, replace_with)
                  

                  Only scanning the text one time and in case the company found is
                  not in the replacements dictionary we replace it with what was found.
                  Btw. its midnight here - good night.

                      By the way, I went back and edited the script to run a second time looking for another instance below.

                      I’m sure there are better ways to jump three lines, but it’s late and I needed to finish. It worked! haha

                      from Npp import editor1, editor2
                      
                      replacements = dict(line.split('\t') for line in editor2.getText().splitlines() if line)
                      
                      def replace_with(m):
                          return replacements[m.group(1)]
                      
                      # search_for = '(?<=<UWI>).+?(?=</UWI>)'
                      for company in replacements.keys():
                          search_for = '<UWI>({})</UWI>\R\h*.*\R\h*.*\R\h*.*\R\h*<PrimaryProduct>\K.+?(?=</PrimaryProduct>)'.format(company)
                          editor1.rereplace(search_for, replace_with)

                        I’m sure there are better ways to jump three lines,

                        In the end, what really counts is whether it does what it is supposed to do, right?
                        One, of several alternatives would be for example

                        <UWI>(.*)</UWI>(?s)(\R.+?)<PrimaryProduct>\K.+?(?=</PrimaryProduct>)

                        but whether this is better or worse depends on the real data.

                          @Ekopalypse said in another replacement request for help:

                          <UWI>(.*)</UWI>(?s)(\R.+?)<PrimaryProduct>\K.+?(?=</PrimaryProduct>)

                          to be used in the script it would be

                          '<UWI>({})</UWI>(?s)(\R.+?)<PrimaryProduct>\K.+?(?=</PrimaryProduct>)'

                              Hi, @ekopalypse and All,

                              Just back from some holidays in Brittany ! Good day to everybody ;;-))

                              Looking back to your first script, of this discussion, it solves an interesting and general task :

                              • Given a first file, where some words / expressions must be replaced

                              • Given a second file containing all these the words / expressions and their corresponding replacements with a tabulation as a separator

                              This script executes, in the first file, all in once, the different replacements, from the second file’s table ;-))


                              Now, considering the slightly modified script, where the range of chars searched is contained in tags <TEST>......</TEST>

                              from Npp import editor1, editor2
                              
                              replacements = dict(line.split('\t') for line in editor2.getText().splitlines() if line)
                              
                              def replace_with(m):
                                  return replacements[m.group()]
                              
                              editor1.rereplace('(?<=<TEST>).+?(?=</TEST>)', replace_with)
                              

                              May I ask you about two questions :

                              • When the file to be modified ( new1 ) contains, in a tag <TEST>......</TEST>, a value not listed in the new 2 file, the scripts stops, no replacement occurs and the console message KeyError: 'ABCDE' is displayed

                              Example, with new 1 :

                              <Wellcollection>
                              	<Well replace="false">
                              		<TEST>BEFORE</TEST>
                              		<WellType>Oil</WellType>
                              		<ReserveStatusCollection>
                              		<TEST>And BEFORE</TEST>
                              		<WellType>Oil</WellType>
                              		<ReserveStatusCollection>
                              		<TEST>ABCDE</TEST>
                              		<WellType>Oil</WellType>
                              		<ReserveStatusCollection>
                              

                              and new 2

                              BEFORE	After
                              And BEFORE	After
                              

                              Could it be possible to avoid errors for all key values not listed in new 2 ?


                              • Secondly, how to ignore case of the key values ? I mean, instead of he obvious method, below, in new 2
                              BEFORE	After
                              And BEFORE	After
                              and before	After
                              

                              I tried this version, without success :

                              from Npp import editor1, editor2
                              import re
                              
                              replacements = dict(line.split('\t') for line in editor2.getText().splitlines() if line)
                              
                              def replace_with(m):
                                  return replacements[m.group()]
                              
                              editor1.rereplace('(?<=<TEST>).+?(?=</TEST>)', replace_with, re.IGNORECASE)
                              

                              with new 1 :

                              <Wellcollection>
                              	<Well replace="false">
                              		<TEST>BEFORE</TEST>
                              		<WellType>Oil</WellType>
                              		<ReserveStatusCollection>
                              		<TEST>And BEFORE</TEST>
                              		<WellType>Oil</WellType>

                              		<WellType>Oil</WellType>
                              		<ReserveStatusCollection>
                              
                              

                              and new 2 :

                              BEFORE	After
                              And BEFORE	After
                              

                              I still had the error :

                              KeyError: 'and before'

                              TIA,

                              Best Regards,

                              guy038

                              Afterwards, I’ll do additional tests with your script and the regex S/R solution, below :

                              SEARCH (?is)(?<=<TEST>)(.+?)(?=</TEST>.+^---.+^\1\t(.+?)$)|^---.+

                              REPLACE ?1\2

                              This S/R executed against this text :

                              <Wellcollection>
                              	<Well replace="false">
                              		<TEST>BEFORE</TEST>
                              		<WellType>Oil</WellType>
                              		<ReserveStatusCollection>
                              		<TEST>And BEFORE</TEST>

                              gives this changed text :

                              <Wellcollection>
                              	<Well replace="false">

                              		<WellType>Oil</WellType>

                              		<TEST>After 2</TEST>
                              		<WellType>Oil</WellType>

                              		<TEST>After 2</TEST>
                              		<WellType>Oil</WellType>
                              		<ReserveStatusCollection>

                              I bet that your script can manage largest files than my regex solution !

                                thank you very much for checking the script.
                                A solution concerning missing replacements is to replace with what was
                                found or what I later suggested, creating unique search strings from the
                                list of replacements.
                                The first approach might work better for large files, the second seemed
                                more reasonable at this point.

                                To ignore case sensitivity - let’s changes the replacement keys to lower string
                                and check against lower matches but replace with defined replacement values. So a replacement dictionary would look like this

                                    replacements = {'täst': 'TEST'}
                                

                                and would replace either Täst or täst with TEST always.

                                Let me think about it again.

                                  @Ekopalypse said in another replacement request for help:

                                  found or what I later suggested, creating unique search strings from the

                                  Not sure about the “later suggest” part, but this seems like a quick solution to the former:

                                  def replace_with(m):
                                      try:
                                          r = replacements[m.group()]
                                      except KeyError:
                                          r = m.group()
                                      return r
                                  

                                  Disclaimer: I didn’t actually try it. :-)

                                    Yep, that is another solution as well.

                                      Hello @alan-kilborn, @ekopalypse and All,

                                      I’ve just tried your solution, Alan,and it worked like a charm ;-)) Clever : when an entry is missing in the dictionary, the script simply rewrites the key value

                                      So, if you realize that you forgot some entries in the new 2 file, ( so some replacements ! ), the easy workaround is :

                                      • Add all these new entries as well as their corresponding replacement parts

                                      • Re-run the script


                                      Now regarding the case’s problem, we may run a regex S/R to get an unique case of an expression, before running the script

                                      For instance, instead of defining, in new 2, these 5: entries

                                      BEFORE	After
                                      Before	After
                                      before	After
                                      BEFore	After
                                      befORE	After
                                      
                                      • Firstly, we would use the regex S/R, against our text in new 1 :

                                        • SEARCH (?i)Before

                                        • REPLACE \U$0

                                      • Secondly, we would re-run the Python script, with only 1 entry, in new 2 :

                                      BEFORE	After
                                      

                                      Best Regards

                                      guy038

                                        Yes, I didn’t see a quick mod to the original script, and I didn’t want to alter its “simple elegance” to hack in casing support. Of course, it’s possible to do, but the original was such a work of art… :-)

                                          Hi, @alan-kilborn, @ekopalypse and All,

                                          Like @ekopalypse, I must had been tired, yesterday, while posting !

                                          Regarding the case’s problem, no need to re-run the script : Just run the following S/R, of course :

                                          • SEARCH (?i)Before

                                          • REPLACE After


                                          So, for all the remaining expressions which must be replaced, whatever their case, better to use the general regex :

                                          • SEARCH (?i)(Expression_1)|(Expression_2)|(Expression_3)....

                                          • REPLACE (?1Replacement_1)(?2Replacement_2)(?3Replacement_3)...

                                          BR

                                          guy038
