| Posted by gary5 Remove <cmt> xxxxx </cmt> I'm a newly registered user. Converted a couple of large gpi files to gpx, but they give an error message in Basecamp. They load ok if I remove the <cmt> tag info from a small sample. How can I remove about 3,500 of those tags in the file? |
| Posted by Mark Re: Remove <cmt> xxxxx </cmt> Hi gary5, It would be much easier to help if you provided a small sample here. Regards |

Open the file in Notepad++. Use search & replace all with Regular Expression as follows (?s-i)<cmt>.+?</cmt> Thanks for the quick reply. Could it have been done with any of the edit tools here? |
| Posted by Mark Re: Remove <cmt> xxxxx </cmt> Hi gary5, Well done. I would also use any text editor to replace: - all </name><cmt> to a dash or comma - all </cmt> to </name> That would keep any additional info, if required. Regards |
