It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 107194
interpreted = N
texte = To match parentheses, you need to escape them using a \, i.e. \(Text1\). Here's one way to try if you always have at least two numbers in the match series: [grep search=([0-9][0-9][0-9]*) \(Text1\)&replace=\1]456678 (Text1) 33467 (Text1)[/grep] (Text 1) This goes ahead and removes the (Text1) and inserts it at the end.
