Hi all!
I would be glad if someone could help me figure out how to remove the € sign
from comments in my Brickstore inventory, PLEASE?
I tried lots of signs/ languages, and.. failed.
thanks!
nice day

The thing is, I can't do that for ALL the comments, as they're not all
the same ^^
AND.. I do have lots of different comments.

In this case aren't you just finding the € character and replacing it with
nothing?

Yep, that's what I would do. Unless you mean something different, like all
the number values that include €?

If that's the case then a slightly more feature-rich editor would be necessary,
and you could use a regular expression (I'll try to post something if that's
what's needed)

or set.

No no - open the file with Notepad++ (better) or Notepad, edit it in using CTRL+H
to replace, save, and re-open in BrickStore.

Of course, work on a COPY !

No need to go through all that. In brickstore, you can use the Remove from comment
or Remove from remark, the text you enter will be removed from anywhere in the
comment/remark. This was added a few versions back. It has been a real joy to
use.

I didn't know it existed.

I just tried, latest version, doesn't work
I've a file with Remarks like "DN1234", I try to remove "DN" or "dn", no
way.

After further tests, it removes a whole word only, like I can remove "DN1234"
but not "DN" from "DN1234".

So, in the case of the OP, it doesn't help him.

Well you are correct, I've only been using it to remove whole words. I'm
going to take a look at the code to see how difficult it might be to make it
do partial words, as I can see the definite benefit to that functionality.
