Using Find and Replace
From NeoWiki
OpenOffice.org and thus NeoOffice/J use a somewhat convoluted Find-and-Replace syntax. This page will hopefully demystify some of the commonly-used commands.
- Neo/J Help: Search for replacing; text or regular expressions; list of or regular expressions; searching (guide) in Neo/J Help for more detailed info
- Trinity threads on the subject: [1], [2], [3]
- Iannz Find & Replace Macro: http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/hillview/OOo/IannzFindReplace.sxw
Returns/Blank Lines
- standard: check "Regular Expressions" box, then fill in ^$ (end of paragraph), $ (end of line)
- there is no way to replace two returns; Iannz's Find & Replace Macro will do this
Tabs
- \t for some strange reason
Etc.
- Codes of "Find" box different from those of "Replace" box
