How to scrub a document of all text between brackets with find and replace
- by sam
I have a log file and I need to find all instances of <password> hash here </password> and remove the hash and replace it with some dummy text like aaa-aaa-aaa-aaaa.
The recurring search argument is anything that matches a bracket that starts with <password> and ends with </password>. All the hashes being replaced will be different.
What's the easiest way to go a bout this? The log is on a windows machine. Probably easiest would be to use MS word for me, unless it's achievable with wordpad, notepad, or some other light weight editor like textpad.
thanks
