Here is my situation.

I have about 100 documents that have this structure that I need to run a search and replace on with regular expression

<title>Accounting</title>
{
...the code that is here varies from file to file..
}
<script>
<title>Mod 1</title>
</script>

What I need to do is Search the file, take the text that is in the first <title> tag and place it in the second <title> tag but I cannot find a regular expression to do this...

I can find both title tags with:
(&lt;title&gt<img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>(.*?)(&lt;/title&gt<img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

but need to know the regular expression to find everything in the:
{
...the code that is here varies from file to file..
}

Is that even possible. Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers
Paul

Text Workbench (www.silveragesoftware.com/hffr.html) is almost perfect for search and replace jobs.
