Need to GREP expression to find. MD, PhD, FAAC. etc but not the end of the sentence

I'm just starting to utiilize GREP a bit and tried to write an expression it would find two or more uppercase or upper case, lower case, upper case combination followed by a period such as. MD, PhD, FAAC. etc. I'm trying to find these instances and delete the period so that he says, M.D., Ph.d., FAAC etc.

I came up with (\u\u|\u\l\u+)\. that works well, except that he also finds something with 2-3 letters at the end of a sentence, which I did not ' hold.

I also used $1 in the change to box to capture phrases which seems to work very well as well.

I really just do not find anything at the end of a sentence.

Maybe something with the advanced search or postanalyse. Which confuses me as well.

Thanks for any help in advance.

Hi dgriffin1951,

Sorry, my English is too bad. In my opinion not looking". MD, PhD, FAAC. " but the point after " MG or PhD or FAAC «»

But perhaps it could be useful:

using Grep find & replace

To find:

(?<>

Replace with:

$1

It is a little tricky, because most other greps are also find' St. ' "in Inc., St. Louis, MI «»

Please give an answer.

  • I want to have a form of lead pop up when a user clicks on an ad on Facebook, Google, etc, but not when a user organically finds my site. I have to create a whole new separate landing page?

    I want to have a form of lead pop up when a user clicks on an ad on Facebook, Google, etc, but not when a user organically finds my site. I have to create a whole new separate landing page?

    "Great sites" with additional technologies can easily intercept incoming requests to a certain page, with all sorts of additional information in the URL (from the related announcement, like this: http://typekit.com/fonts?locale=nl-NL&ref=globalnav&promoid=KRUVR ) and whisk a popup, refer to a different page or activate another script or process of deciding what must happen. But Muse creates a 'static' website with the URL of the page simple, without special scripts or ruffles or processes to decode an additional URL to a query.

    Creating a page of special destination somewhere elsewhere in the Web site to refer to, may be the simplest solution.

  • I need a page of behavior! (Sort of a redirect, but not quite...)

    I use DW MX to build and maintain the index pages for a library of documents on a corporate network.
    The pages are static, just links to the PDF format, so we do not use an application server.

    The PHB decided he wants links pre-built (per month) for doctors who do not yet exist, and until they exist it wants a page "these pages do not exist' for each of dozens of non-existent pages.
    Don't even ask...


    What I need is to have a single "these pages do not exist" page that opens when you click a link that is not a file in the directory, but when the named file is added to the directory, the link opens the file.

    This is not a new idea, but I looked for an extension, a behavior, or a script javascript or something that will do it, without success. Does anyone know something that would do this?

  • Need a Grep Expression to change a space between braces.

    Hey all -

    I know that it must be ridiculously simple for someone who knows about Grep.

    I have a string of text between braces, like this:

    {namevalue = 'Firstname Lastname'}

    And I would like to add a special character or a word between the first and last name, so I can make some additional changes to the structure via find/replace.

    So, I would like to change to this example:

    {namevalue = "first name last name$ $$"} or this: {namevalue = "FirstnameKAPOWLastname"} or this: {namevalue = "Firstname12434Lastname"}

    You get the picture. Any help will be greatly appreciated.


    Like this:

    ({"Search: (\{namevalue=".+)? \s(?=.+? "\})

    Replace with: $1 @.

    (/ / start capture)

    \{NameValue=' / / literal {namevalue ="

    .+?                       followed by one or more of any character.

    ) / / end of capture

    \s / /... until the first space...

    (?=.+?" \}) {/ /... but only if followed by some characters ending by}

    It might be simpler-

    Search: (\{namevalue=".+?) \s

    Replace with: $1 @.

  • where can I find smart object in photoshop? Not the button but the actual location of the file.

    Could someone tell me where to find the file saved to the dynamic object? I need to change my mac and all move to the new machine. I want to make sure I have everything, I'm missing all the PSB to smart object files. Where is he? and please don't tell me that I need to copy one by one to the temp folder that appear ONLY when I open the smart object.

    Unless the dynamic object is a dynamic object-related, they are stored in the master file. There is no separate file. When you double-click and edit the file SO, it opens the PSB file in the OS temp directory and deletes this file once the main file is closed, unless you save it in another location.

  • Where can I find a standalone installation package, and not the current upgrade stub?

    My home connection is dial-up and to download an 'upgrade' of 40 MB solution would take about 2 hours. I use a public computer with free broadband to download the installation packages of all the software that I use. I can record these packets to a flash drive to take home to work on my computer. The solution of "upgade" Mozilla trying to upgrade the public computer. I don't get a portable installation package. Of course, it serves me.

    Also, if I have a standalone installation package, I can keep it incase I need to re - install, or if I want to share Firefox with someone else.

    Please send me a link to a standalone, portable installation package I can download.

    Thank you in advance.

  • I need to delete my e-mail account of my laptop but not my desktop

    Help, please! I have a desktop computer and a laptop. I use the same user account and e-mail at a time. I need to remove my email from my cell account only without losing my user account.

    I use Windows 7 Home Premium.

    My user name is the same as my email account.

    Sorry about that. I suspect that nobody has really worked what it is you are trying to do. In Windows 7, it there was absolutely no link between user account data and a process of e-mail or the program you may be using. If you use Windows Live Mail, you can delete an e-mail account by right-clicking on its name in the folders pane and selecting remove account. This will remove all records of account and permanently remove their content. If there are messages that you want to keep in a folder account, move them to the folders defined by the user under storage folders before you delete the account.

    If this isn't what you mean, so please explain a little more clearly what you are trying to do.

  • Need to hide, obscure, hide the field entry, but not the field itself

    Hello

    I did it just now and I used the UGLY way. I had the user to enter in their value, and then on the calculation and the field trip, I changed the value of * asterisks. That sucked because I had to save the entry in an additional variable and it just made my code a big mess. I know there is a better way to do it via script format or typo (I hope!), but I can't wrap my head around how things work. Can someone please help me understand?

    I need to take the value typed into a field and simply hide to hide the value of any person who could open the form later.

    Thanks in advance.

    I have 2 pages now in the test server.

    Bloicpage.cfm
    And

    When you go to
    Server.myappfolders/repfolder


    It lets you go to

    Page.

    I need for the themainpage.cfm to be the default when you type
