The document has numbers in English and Arabic style. I want to select just English numbers like 123, 652, 0026 and so.

So do a wildcard Find for such numbers! You have been told how to use wildcards before.

Do you mean <[A-Za-z]{1,}>?
Unfortunately I have forgotten how to use this as a wildcard.
Can you tell me how to use it and where I must type it?
