I am not sure if Notepad++ can handle multiple files, though. I use FAR Manager with RESearch plugin and that works like a charm.

Is Far Manager a program to bulk edit a lot of html files? Because I was thinking if so this could save me a lot of time since I have 130-150 stories.

FAR Manager is a file manager. One of its plugins, RESearch provides regular expression search and replace to many components of FAR; one of its features is the ability to perform regexp s&r on multiple files at once.

I do use Notepad++ and it does work fine with multiple files. It has tabs for the different files and it also allows you to search/replace all the files loaded.

This looks like it has a lot of potential to save me time. I was originally looking to see if I can accomplish the same task via Word with macros (but I haven't looked into batch editing via macros?)
