          I don’t want to have to shout but you really need to remove the check from . matches newline like in the image Alan provided

          It’s in the Search Mode box. See it?

            I used above search but still not selecting all the lines. As you see in the below image.

            Hi. You didn’t notice that the expression that appears above is different from what you typed or pasted in, right? It’s missing two asterisks of the original. This is because when you paste text with asterisks in this discussion board, software converts the text to italics so people can make PRETTY TEXT. (The preview pane let’s you see this, but you have to look carefully.)

            The way to prevent this is to use one of the two triple backquote techniquesas described in Please Read Before Posting.

            Well, I didn’t notice either, and I was wrong to suggest you were using the wrong expression.

              Hi Neil
              I understood that while responding the search word came default and i didn’t notice that you have taken that as a reference and providing the comments.

              Can you see the image which i pasted there, in that one i have entered the correct format?

              Thanks for spending time with me and i am a new user for notepad++.

                  Yes, but I noticed it too late. The text in the image is small and I didn’t think to cross-check.

                  I’m happy to hear it’s working.

                      I’m not sure what you are asking for or needing to know, but it is good if you become familiar with these:

                        Wow, Neil, thanks for dealing with THAT, and sparing me. :-)

                        Additional good reference on regular expressions (the technique shown above to solve the problem) is found starting HERE.
