------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Nov 1 18:17:19 +0000 2007 ------- I understand and thank you. My view is that it *is* a bug - we have a button that will 'Find All' in the current text, and the 'Replace All' button should therefore also operate on the current text. Certainly that's what a user would expect. However I guess we have to live with it. There are a whole range of similar situations, eg in 'this is a sentence' Find \<. (or ^.) Replace with nothing; in 'ababab abababab abab' Find \<ab Replace with a<space> - but they are perhaps a bit contrived. I hope the \1 \2 ... backreferences in 'Replace with' proposed for OOo2.4 don't throw up more - I guess probably not. I'll edit the Regex HowTo to include your sensible workaround. The trouble is the HowTo will soon be spending longer talking about all the bugs than it is about the functionality ;) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
