Find: ^\d+: doesn’t work and plus, i don’t need it for the whole document, just for the lines i select. -
@Ionut-Dorin said in Insert sequential numbers at start of lines:

If you did exactly what I said to do, I see no reason why it wouldn’t work on your sample data.
i don’t need it for the whole document, just for the lines i select.
Ok, so don’t checkmark Wrap around but make your selection first and then checkmark In selection.

@Alan-Kilborn Yes, that did it, I think i read too fast and didn’t see that you said “Search mode: Regular expression” and i didn’t check that, so maybe that’s why it didnt work.
Also, i turned it into a macro for ease of use.
Thank you so much for your help and patience, you’re a lifesaver.
