add text before the 2nd last space in each line?
-
I want to add a comma before the 2nd last time in each line of text in notepad ++, heres an example if what I mean : house, Road, westworld, Co. London H509 50565
so I want to add the comma after London, to make it appear like this: house, Road, westworld, Co. London, H509 50565
thanks!

Are you able to confirm that the last piece “H509 50565” exists on all lines. Obviously not those exact characters, but that there are 2 words (a word here is defined as a string of non-blank characters) that need separating by adding the comma on every line. Without that assumption is might be difficult to decide where to place the comma.

@Terry-R thats right all the lines are two words, where I need to insert a comma before these last two words

So that being true, try this.
Replace function:
Find What:^(.+)((\h\w+){2})$
Replace With:\1,\2See if that works for you.
