Hi slaycock,

Didn't quite get the results I expected. First, it does not handle the space between the open and close square bracket. I removed the space and the f/r did run, but was hoping the find and replace could pick up the ] space [ pattern.

However, by removing the space, one of the open square brackets gets changed to a close square bracket on the new line instead of the results in post #1.

[Proverbs 4:26 NASB]
]26] Watch the path of your feet And all your ways will be established.
[Proverbs 18:19 NASB]
]19] A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city, And contentions are like the bars of a citadel.
[Proverbs 11:29 NASB]
]29] He who troubles his own house will inherit wind, And the foolish will be servant to the wisehearted.
