      Now is:
      abc def ghi

      after replacing:
      * def ^

      Find = (abc)|(ghi)
      Replace = ???

      ?1*?2^ it does not work.

        It did not work because the if-2 is still inside the if-1 conditional. Use the optional parentheses to make sure things are grouped the way you want. (?1*)(?2^) or (?1*)?2^
