Hello everyone,

I'd like to "find and replace" a phrase that includes a word with "emphasis" tags on either side: "click the Yes button". How can I do that?

(memoQ 8.5.8)

Many thanks in advance.

For anyone who might find this helpful, here's the fix.

1. Enable regex mode.
2. Find what: (\tag)ABC(\tag)
3. Replace with: $1XYZ$2

Note: (\tag) will match any tag. $1, $2 etc. will keep replace the tags in sequence.
