Reply To: GREP Find and replace expression

Thanks – sorry if I wasn’t giving enough detail.

19:49 Jim: How you doing?
19:53 Jane: I’ve finished tidying here
19:53 Jim: Can either start another thing or meet you in a bit?
20:20 Jane: We’re just sorting the bill now
20:20 Jane: Shouldn’t be too long
20:21 Jim: Cool beans
20:41 Jane: Just walking to the station now

They’re all formatted like this.

The ideal result would be:

19:49 Jim: How you doing?
19:53 Jane: I’ve finished tidying here
19:53 Jim: Can either start another thing or meet you in a bit?
20:20 Jane: We’re just sorting the bill now
[TAB] Shouldn’t be too long
20:21 Jim: Cool beans
20:41 Jane: Just walking to the station now

The repeated instance has been removed and replaced with a tab character.

Obviously the times vary, so I have been attempting to get around that with wildcards, but I might be overcomplicating it. I’d be really grateful if someone knows the best way to be expressing this.
