I saved the following message for reference. But I just tested it and it

Thanks,

Perhaps:
Find: =020  \\\\\$a\D*(\d{9,12}[X\d])\b.*$ Replace with: =020  \\$a$1

Check Use regular expressions.

(Verify that it works properly before implementing in a production
system).

Please correct me if I am wrong.

I hope this helps,
