Replace with - question for advance formating
-
Hi.
Have an issue - need to do bulk update on all open files which is easy but the problem is that I have date time expression dot separated and need for date to separate it with slash so it looks like this:
“Value”: “19.01.2022 21:48:18”I would like to replace it with I think regular expression so it would look like that after transformation:
“Value”: “19/01/2022 21:48:18”Wanted to use regular option to replace with shortcut of ctrl+h
Don’t know if this is possible and what to put as Replace with to get the expected result.
Any one any idea how to sort it out> If not with that option maybe with command line etc.I’m on windows without option to use any other system like linux.
Would be grateful if anyone would be able to help.
Thank you in advance! -

I would like to replace it with I think regular expression so it would look like that after transformation:
“Value”: “19/01/2022 21:48:18”The basic idea is to use capture groups — each group parenthesized in the find expression corresponds to a numbered group, $n, in the replacement:
Find what :
(\d\d)\.(\d\d)\.(\d\d\d\d)
Replace with :$1/$2/$3If all dates, and only dates,consist of two digits, a period, two digits, a period, and four digits, that’s all you need.
