I need to transform some hundreds of thousands of lines of program code. A solution to the following problem would be a big start:

This
procedure showmessage(mess as string,mheight as long)
if vartype(.....

needs to become this

function showmessage(mess as stringt,mheight as long)
{
if vartype(....

Where everything varies except "procedure" in the search block, and "function" and brace in the replace block.

procedure (\w+)\((\w+) as string,(\w+) as long\)

replace with:

function $1($2 as string,$3 as long)

if vartype(....

Close enough that I can make it work. Thanks.
