How to mark lines with the first 10 characters duplicated
-
Is it important that we keep the lines as it is or can we sort the document first?

@Ekopalypse
The document is sorted by the first 10 characters.
I want to mark the lines first to check them, and then delete -

Thank you very much. It works.
Last question: How could I delete the line duplicated ? For example just the line 4 -
if it is not important which line gets deleted we could use
find what:
(.{10}).*\R(?=\1)
replace with is empty -

If there are more two lines duplicated, can I use this regex ? -
1234567890;Example1;100
1234 ;Example2;200
1233334554;Example3;300
1234567890;Example7;700
I need to mark the line 1 and 4.
The document is sorted by the first 10 characters.
Hmmm, not seeing the document as being sorted… what am I missing?

Yes, I guess so.

maybe just a copy/paste before the sorting took place.
