This should be easy to find but I've been looking and looking at the doc and
can't find it. Maybe it can't be done.

In the IDE editors find/replace I want to use regular expression to change
the first letter after "Dim " to lower case.

e.g Dim Tmp to Dim tmp

can you show me the replace string.

I believe the Find string is: Dim {[a-z]}

correct?

and the replace string is someting like

Dim \1

which changes nothing so it needs someting after the \1 to cause the
conversion to upper case.

Thanks

Franky,

Why don't you try it?

try what?

I have tried various things. Seems I saw < someplace means upper case in a
different OS but it didn't work for me.
