Question on advanced search/replace with wildcards

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out a way to search/replace a space with a non
breakable space between words, most of the time singular and sometimes
plural, and any digit following the specific words.

What would be the endind part of the sequence for the search?

Example :

Searching for : "([Pp]aragraphe?) ([0-9])"
Replacing with : "\1^s\2"


[space or no space]paragraphes[space]1.2
[space or no space]Paragraphes[space]3[space]et[space]4
[space or no space]paragraphe[space]1
[space or no space]Paragraphe[space]4.5

I want this result :

paragraphes[non breakable space]1.2
Paragraphes[non breakable space]3[space]et 4
paragraphe[non breakable space]1
Paragraphe[non breakable space]4.5

But it doesn't work!


Thank you in advance for your response

Hi,

Try the following search string.

([Pp]{1}aragraph[es]{1,2}) ([0-9])

It doesn't take care of the problem of the possible space before the string.
You might need a second search with the space to handle it
