    This might be an easy one, but how do I Find/Change every 2nd tab to a return in text. Thanks

    Do you mean text like

    This is sample <tab> text this is sample <tab> text This is sample <tab> text this is sample <tab> text This is sample <tab> text this is sample <tab> text

    ?

    Something like this work for you?

    (?<= t)(.+?)t

    $1r

    Can you give an example of the text that you're trying to change?
