I need to replace certain UTF8 hex codes to the equivalent character in an irregular text string like:
I’m not sure if I should be using RegEx or a macro to find and replace each entry since they won’t appear regularly in the text strings I’m working with.
Thanks.
Just a macro – as there’s no “variable” data in your search, you don’t need a regex. Record a macro to replace the first character, then the second and so on. Use the “normal mode” to replace with the correct character.
You need a reasonably new version of N++ to be able to record search & replace actions – from 5.8.2/3 I think.
Dave.
