You are right. I forgot that non matched items are copied. I will give you a corrected version later once I am at my computer.

This turned out to be a bit more complicated than I hoped.

The following works to copy only the !!! tags to the new column. You will then need to use a second pass to delete those items from tags (easiest with the tag manager) and remove the !!! from the tags in the new column with S&R.

The tags you want moved to the new column should be "marked" with !!!. This S&R does the job.

The search expression is

Code:

^(!!!.*|\b).*?$

The next S&R will remove the !!! from the tags in the new column.

You can use the Tag Manager to remove the !!! tags from the Tags column.
