Just discovered, when I press Find Next, it highlights in grey perfectly the limits of each example including all varied texts, as follows:

[inaudible 04:22]

[in England 05:34]

[inaudible 06:07]

[voices overlap 07:21]



...and so on.

In which case, unless you messed up the Replace part and/or the default highlighting, they'd all be highlighted.

For anyone else curious about this - as I was - I have just worked out an easy way to do this. I have just finished a massive transcript and also wanted to highlight the timestamps, e.g. "The quick brown fox [0:04:10] lazy dog, but I only want the numbers highlighted. This is how I did it -
A simple Search and Replace:


Find: ^#:^#^#:^#^#
Replace with ^&
Format: Highlight



And then for extra efficiency, I've made it a macro to run at the end of of my document.

That was already described in post #4...
