Find and Replace Text Online

Replace every occurrence of an exact text fragment in a passage. Use it to update labels, repeated phrases or delimiters without editing each match separately.

Set the exact phrase

Enter your source text, the phrase to find and its replacement. Capitalization and spaces matter when matching.

Remove unwanted fragments

Leave the replacement blank to delete matching text. Check the result for spaces left behind by the deletion.

Treat symbols literally

Dots, asterisks and brackets are ordinary search characters here. The tool does not interpret regular expressions or wildcard patterns.

Review broad replacements

A short search fragment may also occur inside longer words. Use a more specific phrase when you only intend to change a particular label.

Find and Replace Text FAQs

This tool uses case-sensitive matching. Convert case separately only if changing the entire passage is acceptable.
No. Replacement is literal and does not use regular-expression capture groups.
Enter the phrase in Find and leave Replace with empty. Every exact, case-sensitive match is removed, including matches inside longer text. Review the output carefully; this is not a whole-word-only search or a regular-expression replacement.
