UltraEdit: How to search only in the first line

Question

I have a DAT file with multiple lines and I want to search only on the first line. For example, my DAT file contains this text:

Field1þField2þField3þField4þ
JohnþUKþStevenageþ9012þ
MerlitþUSAþBelAirþ56þ

I want to search how many fields I have (in this case, there are 4). If I search for þ, the search is executed across all rows and I get 12 for this example.

Answer 1

Select the first line in the file (SHIFT+END if your cursor is at start of file). You can then go to the Find dialog box and you should see an option to only search "Selected text".

Update: I'm using UltraEdit version 22.10.0.12
