I am using Adobe Dreamweaver 19.2.1. on Windows 7 32 bit

I receive the following error when executing my find and replace string and selecting replace all. Regular expression syntax error: invalid quantifier.

Search string =(?<!")\b(\d+)\b(?!")

Replace string ="$1"

I do not receive the error if I simply select replace. Adobe makes the appropriate changes with no error. The error only occurs if I click replace all.

Thanks for the help.

@BenPleysier gave you two correct answers, just display them...

1. What are you searching -- entire local site, current document or selected folder?

2. What results do you get when you click on FIND ALL with that search string?

NOTE: Dreamweaver is in minimal maintenance status. No new features or fixes are planned for it.

Searching in current document.

Searching in current document Find All works correctly

Replace works correctly

Replace all causes the error invalid quantifier.

Thanks for your time and help.
