Re: A Question Derived from Converting decimal value

Thank you sir! Don't know how I missed that in the manual and I promise I did look there first. On Wednesday, March 16, 2022 at 4:13:30 PM UTC-4 Patrick Woolsey wrote: > On 3/16/22 at 2:06 PM, thep...@gmail.com (ThePorgie) wrote: > > >I was tinkering with with Patrick's question > > Not actually

A Question Derived from Converting decimal value

I was tinkering with with Patrick's question regarding replacing the digits where the "n.1" is replaced with "n.33" and "n.2" is replaced with "n.67" His sample data: *Sample Desired output* 0.20.67 1.11.33 1.11.33 1.2

Re: Converting decimal value of some numbers using Grep

Though you can do this, you'll need to perform two search & replace passes: one for each value pair. Find: ^(\d+?)\.1 Replace: \1.33 and Find: ^(\d+?)\.2 Replace: \1.67 Regards, Patrick Woolsey == Bare Bones Software, Inc. > On Mar

Converting decimal value of some numbers using Grep

I have a column of numbers; some have a decimal value. Some numbers end with `.1` and some end with `.2`. If a number's decimal part contains `.1` I want to change its ending to `.33`, but keep its whole number the same, so 1.1 would become 1.33. Also, if a number's decimal part contains `.2`
