    How would I change "aB" to "a. B"?

    Hi everyone. I have some text that I would like to automatically insert sentence breaks into. At some points in the text there are instances where one sentence endsThen another one begins with no full stops/periods or spaces between.

    I'd like to run code that finds lowercase/uppercase pairs and inserts ". " between them while keeping the same letters.

    I think it's something like if ([a-z])([A-Z]) then ([a-z]). ([A-Z]) but this doesn't work. Can anyone help, please? Many thanks! :-)

    Check 'Use Wildcards'

    Find: ([a-z])([A-Z])

    Replace: \1. \2

    Remember: Tell us WHAT you want to do, not HOW you think you want to do it

    1. Use [CODE] ....[/CODE ] Tags for readability
    [CODE]PasteYourCodeHere[/CODE ] -- (or paste your code, select it, click [#] button)
    2. Upload an example
    Go Advanced / Attachments - Manage Attachments / Add Files / Select Files / Select the file(s) / Upload Files / Done
    3. Mark the thread as [Solved] when you have an answer
    Thread Tools (on the top right corner, above the first message)
    4. Read the Forum FAQ, especially the part about cross-posting in other forums
