<![CDATA[find at and copy text to the end of a different line]]>Hi

I am new here, can someone tell me if is there a way to copy the text on multiple documents of the same structure and past it at the end of a specific line.

e.g. line 4 - Name Catch me
line 6 - Slogan If You Can

desired results must be in line 4
line 4 - Name Catch me If You Can
line 6 - Slogan If You Can

thanks

Mabura

So, before text is:

line 1
line 2
line 3
Name Catch me
line 5
Slogan If You Can
line 7

and after text is:

line 1
line 2
line 3
Name Catch me If You Can
line 5
Slogan If You Can
line 7

You could do:

Find: \A(?-is)(?:.*\R){3}.*\K(?=\R(?:.*\RSlogan(.+)))
Replace: ${1}
Search mode: Regular expression

Other solutions are definitely possible.

Yes, I want to copy all text on line 6 after the word Slogan and paste them at the end of line 4.

Thanks

You need to state a more rigid pattern than that, for any sane person to even start offering help.

For example, if you’d said “I need to take the last 3 words on line 6 and copy them to the end of line 4 after adding a space…” then that is a more solid starting point. Of course, that can be a starting point, if it is true, but until you confirm it we have no real reason to assume that is a rigid definition of what you want.
