Here is the modified macro which now converts the ASCII Escaped Unicode file to a pure ASCII file and contains a workaround for the double BOM bug. The BOM is not a white-space character and so the regex string is not found. find 0 or more occurencies of white-space characters (spaces, tabs)įirst name. ^ \s* First name: at start of the search string means following: This twice BOM is now the reason, why the macro did not work. Please report this bug to IDM support by email. Next time please post this identifier so we know what format your file has.Īdditionally UltraEdit (v11.20b and v12.20a+3) seems to have a bug with ASCII Escaped Unicode files because the UTF-16 LE BOM (byte order marker) is twice at top of the file after loading the file with the appropriate config option enabled. The second box contains the file format identifier which is here UESC-DOS. With this option the file is loaded as ASCII Escaped Unicode file which you can see in the status bar at bottom of the UltraEdit window. Looks like Mike and Bego and I too have not checked it because we never edit ASCII Escaped Unicode files. If the config option Detect ASCII/ANSI file with Escaped Unicode at Configuration - File Handling - Unicode/UTF-8 Detection is not checked, it is loaded as pure ASCII file. It's the first time that I see an ASCII Escaped Unicode file. I see new window with pasted line "First name:John,info:asfsdfdsfsdg,Last Name:Smith" and nice "string not found" window. Macro>Edit Macro>New macro and copy/paste following code:ģ.ctrl+m. I open ultraedit and copy one line "First name:John,info:asfsdfdsfsdg,Last Name:Smith" to make it easyĢ. Should be formated and I should see John Smith, but it not happens.ġ. Is suppose to find name after First name: and find surname after Last Name: and replace the line (format) with the actual first and last name, but this is where I get String not found.įirst name:John,info:asfsdfdsfsdg,Last Name:Smith SelectAll,Copy,NewFile,Paste just select the first line copy it into clipboard and paste into a new window. Im sorry to disappoint all, but STILL does not work for me. MAC for MACro) now paste Mike's macro into the left hand box. "New Macro", click it, give it a name (notice where it is saved, also it will be saved with a suffix of. ![]() Goto "Macro" -> "Edit Macro." when the window open there is a button Now that you have a feel for what and how macros work, lets work on your problem. With your data, play around and see how these options work, remember the help file explains each option. This is where Mike wants you to paste his macro.īut I'm jumping ahead of myself, you need to play the macro you just recorded, you have two options "Macro" -> "Play Again" or "Play Any/Multiple Times" Here is where you will see your first macro you just created. Ok you created your first macro, to see it goto "Macro" -> "Edit Macro." Once you had some fun, go to pull down menu "Macro" -> "Stop Recording". So move your cursor, copy some text and open a new file and paste something in it. Under the pull down menu "Macro" -> "Record", UltraEdit will record your actions you take while editing your file. This is not related to your problem but is a good exercise to understand what a Macro is. "Help" pull down menu -> "Index" enter "Macro menu" You can omit step 3 + 4 and instead press button New Macro after opening the edit macro dialog and enter there the name for the new macro and set the macro properties.ĭon't forget to save all the currently loaded and created macros into a macro file when you need them again.įirst the help file is your friend, read "Macro menu"
