Reformat text

[JohnR 0]

Has anyone written a macro, or is there a tool to delete carriage returns and reform lines of copied text in memos?

 

I copy/paste unformatted text to a memo field and currently go: End - Delete - Spacebar to reform text. This is boring when I have just plagiarised a large amount of text.

 

Is there anything to speed-up this process?

Try Notepad++ ( http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net )

 

Copy your text into notepad++ and from the menu bar select "TextFX" and have a look thru the choices ( I suggest trying "TextFX Characters/Zap all non printable characters to #" and doing a search and replace on the #)

 

Then copy the result to the memo field
