Replacing different values with one value

[2 mins Summary]

Hi everyone,

I am a newbie in using this great software, and I am struggling to find a way to replace different values with one value.

For example, I want to find the values of width then replace them to a specific value (say 100) :

width=“170” length=“70”
width=“110” length=“80”
width=“90” length=“70”

To:
width=“100” length=“70”
width=“100” length=“80”
width=“100” length=“70”

I have tried to type width=“.*” in the Find what: zone, and width=“10” in the Replace what: zone.

This method did work, however it is removing whatever after the value ( the length in this example)

I really appreciate it if you can help me

Find: width="\d+"
Replace: width="100"
Search mode: Regular expression

There is some great material on these types of data manipulations in the user manual as well as on this site, see here.

@alan-kilborn said in Replacing different values with one value:

Find: width=“\d+”
Replace: width=“100”
Search mode: Regular expression

And a presumption here is that you have straight quotes " in your real data, and not curly quotes “” like you show.
