Carrol: This should do the trick: Find: \r\n([^\[].*?)$ Replace: $1 Note - your example shows
[b]Sound:[/b] Mono, Dolby [b]More:[/b] replaced by [b]Sound:[/b] Mono [b]More:[/b] I assume that was an error and you would actually want: [b]Sound:[/b]Mono,Dolby [b]More:[/b] correct? Above regex relies on the "fact"? that the *ONLY* lines in your input which do *NOT* start with "[" are those which are to be merged up to the preceding line. If this is not the case (eg. others lines at the beginning or end of the text to be adjusted which are to be left as is) the regex would have to be altered.
