Find = Answer[!^13]{1,}^13

In both cases, leave the Replace box empty.

hi,

the 2nd wildcard format didn't work - it made 0 replacements.

another problem i have is :

e.g.

question A

question B

question C

i want to turn it to :

question A
question B
question C

but using find/replace with ^p in find box, i get :

question Aquestion Bquestion C

what should be the correct function then?
