Hello

Is there a way to look through a long global text file and copy only single lines and replace them with 2 additional copies. This is in response to an earlier post today. But I found I have some single lines in my text and they should be tripled so I can use the script from earlier.

So I am looking for a script to look for a single line of text with a paragraph break at the end and copy it and paste it back in the same location 2 more times to get a three line version of the same text instead of one line.

This will help me tremendously with my project and the hard work that others have given me to help this to happen properly

Thanks

Hi,

I'm quite sure there's a more robust way of doing this.

In the meanwhile, you could try it to see if it does the job.

The global is parsed into repetitions, but for sure you could use some other fields or records within a loop.
