Using Regular Expressions in Text Searches

Regular expressions can be used to search for some unspecified or even invisible characters.

note

Searching with regular expressions is different from searching with wildcards. LibreOffice Writer only supports searching with regular expressions.


You can use regular expressions when you find and replace text in a document. For example, "s.n" finds "sun" and "son".

  1. 選擇 [編輯] - [尋找與取代]

  2. 按一下 [更多選項] 展開對話方塊。

  3. 選取「常規表述式」核取方塊。

  4. In the Find box, type the search term and the regular expression(s) that you want to use in your search.

  5. Click Find Next or Find All.
