Delete all lines NOT containing .... Hi,
Can you help me out, which function or snippet, or macro is able to do this : In an open text file, delete all lines that DO NOT contain the word the user entered in a prompt, or perhaps lines that DO NOT contain the word currently in the Clipboard cache. I have a big text file open, and I would like to filter out all lines that DO NOT contain the string "China". Can you help me please ? |

Re: Delete all lines NOT containing .... Hi,
There's a macro in the Library here. It extracts lines not containing a specified string to a new file. http://www.emeditor.com/modules/mydownloads/singlefile.php?cid=8&lid=170 Give it a try, hope that helps  |
