Edit EOL BOL and Punctuation replacer

#1

  1. How can I do a mass insert of a string to the BOL or EOL in a column.

  2. I would like to auto edit “something #11 something” changing # to No. The “Word Replacer” does not work because # is not around word boundaries.

I saw in a past question 11/2007 that there was going to be a punctuation replacer. I am using the latest version of Jaikoz and do not see this yet. Has this not been implemented yet or is it some where other than under the Manipulators.

Thanks

Type the value you want to insert into an empty field
Select Copy
Select the fields you want to add into
Select Paste to Start/Paste to End

Open the Find and Replace Dialog
Select the Column you want to insert into from the drop down
Enter # into the Find Field
Entert No. into the Replace Field
Select Replace All

No not done yet.

I had tried what you suggested but it did not work.

I had to first edit the field and change “#” to "# " and then I could use the Find and Replace. I believe in the case of #11, the pound sign is not surrounded by a word boundry.

Not a big deal I was just wonder if there was something easier.

Thanks

Are you sure your using Find and Replace (not the word replacer) because I retried this and it works fine.
