That rings a bell somehow, but IIRC I fixed it by using the "$" expression. Take a look in Help for "replacing;tab stops (regular expressions)" and see if that table doesn't help. I'm using 3.2.1 on an XP Pro SP3 Dell T3400 workstation. Yes, I know it doesn't sound like the right place in Help, but that chart is where I found it, again IIRC. IT'll only operate on the last character in a line. Don't know why it's under tabs - but that's OO's Help, good or bad.Nothin surprises me in Help anymore.
