Take for example in google search, if it doesn't have the exact match it will find something that has your search words within .
Examle :
search for : hey how
found : hey man, how are you doing ?
you can compare the normal search in TextCrawler to search that google makes if you type it with quotation marks, like : "Hey how" .
So how i make it to search like google normal search ? and it would be even better to limit these words into one line, so it wont find let's say :
hey man
how are you doing
But will found :
hey man, how are you doing ?

You can do this using the regular expression tab.
Try this:
Regular expression:
Use the 'Dot matches newline' option to match over more than one line.
Try this:
Regular expression:
Code: Select all
hey .*? how
Use the 'Dot matches newline' option to match over more than one line.

Re: How can i search for more than one word - with words bet
Hello,
Almost the same question.
I have a Gedcom-file:
1 _NEW
2 TYPE 1
2 DATE 7 APR 2013
3 TIME 05:15:03
1 CHAN
I want to remove the lines
1 _NEW
2 TYPE 1
2 DATE 7 APR 2013
3 TIME 05:15:03
I have tried to search using the regular expression 1 _NEW .*? 1 CHAN (all options)
Nothing is found.
What am I doing wrong?

Re: How can i search for more than one word - with words bet
It works if you don't put the spaces in:
Note if you replace this with nothing you'll lose the "1 CHAN" as well - you'll need to have 1 CHAN as the replace phrase.
Code: Select all
1 _NEW.*?1 CHAN
