I have a really strange thing going on.
I have a text document that has a carriage return at the end of each
line. I get these often, and usually I just do a search and replace
to remove them.
This time, if I use "find" and then "replace" it works fine. But if I
just select "replace all" it simply deletes the highlighted paragraph
(I do have "current selection only" checked). I don't want to do it
on the entire document -- there is formating in the first ten pages or
so that it messes up if I do that.
I can, of course, just keep clicking "find" and then "replace" but
since this document is over 150 pages, that's going to take awhile.
I've done this hundreds of times and never had this happen. I've
downloaded the most recent OOo version, but haven't installed it yet,
so there haven't been any changes since the last time I did this.
Does anyone know what's going on?
TIA
What Regular Expression are you using?
It happens with both "$" and with "\n"

Hmm. I'm using OO 2.2 on Win XP Pro and the fin/replace "$" is fine but
it can't find "\n". This is in a .odt document; same in a .txt document.
So, sorry, I have to utter the hated phrase "cannot reproduce your problem".
