Please help me on RegEX about Find&Replace
I would like to ask about the Regular Expression please.


FYI, I just started learning RegEX, so I'm really a noob about RegEx for now = ="


My question is,


for example, I would like to "replace" all the characters (words) when it finds the MATCHED "characters" or "words" in the following, but I don't know what RegEx I should use


363UUID:2126A5D926
IKYUUID :FC1012AA09545
KYDKYEUUID :2CC2F29D54D7849(&#


I use
Find "UUID:.........." <=== I use "." for ten times
Replace "my words"


However, It's only replace like the following


363my words
IKYmy words545
KYDKYEmy wordsD7849(&#

But that's not what I want
because it's only replace the ten "characters" only I want to replace all the "characters" which doesn't matter how many left on that line,
But I want to replace them all SINCE it finds the MATCHED "characters" or "words" and the result I want should be like the following.


363my words
IKYmy words
KYDKYEmy words



As you can see, It was my bad using "." RegEx for "ten dots", but I can use "twenty dots" in this case to make it works
However, ASSUME I don't know What is the Highest number of dots I should use as if there are thousand of lines,
and each line doesn't have the same number of characters.


FYI, I can just use ....................................... as much as I want, However, if in that documents only has "LESS" characters for each line than the "dots" RegEX I used,
the program will do NOTHING, and give me "Error BEEP (sound)"


So can you give me the Correct (EASY) RegEx I could use please




Thank you so much if anyone can help me out for this.
