advanced replace

[Good Ghost]

Ok, so I want to find in text phrases like:

12%
15%
76%

and I want to replace it to:

ca. 12%
ca. 15%
ca. 76%

Is there any way to do that? If so, how?

Regards,
goodghost

You need a wildcard search for

([0-9]{1,2}%)
replace with
ca. \1

this will however add another ca. to any two digit percentage that already
has ca. in front

You can perform a wildcard search:

Press Ctrl+H.

Click the More button, and check the "Use wildcards" option.

"Find what": [1-9]@%
"Replace with: ca. ^&

Click Replace All.

Note that this assumes that the percentages does not include a decimal
sign.
