selecting text from current position till a pattern to search
Submitted by rsc on Monday, 3 September, 2007 - 11:35
I often have the task to select or delete a text (more than one line) from the actual position till a pattern to search for. If you know UEDIT there you can press "shift" and initiate the search. All the text from the current position including the string found will be marked.

I accomplished this by recording a macro and manipulating the Java code afterwards. However, if you are recording a quick macro this is much too intricate.

What did I miss?

Thanks for your help, Rolf.
