Macro automatically adding a value to a value

I have a problem with a macro in notepad ++

You just need the value to automatically change to +1 (from the current value)

Values ​​must be 1000, 1001, 1002, 1003, etc. for the following values ​​between the MEDIA_ID tags.

<MEDIA> <MEDIA_ID>1000</MEDIA_ID> </MEDIA> <MEDIA> <MEDIA_ID>1001</MEDIA_ID> </MEDIA>

I have no idea how to do this.

Can anyone help?

thanks

1) Create a list of numbers from 1000 to the desired number using excel and copy it to Notepad ++.

2) Go to the beginning of the file.

3) Start a macro shot.

 4) type <MEDIA>(down arrow)(HOME button)<MEDIA_ID>(END button)</MEDIA>(down arrow)(HOME button)</MEDIA>(down arrow)(HOME button)

5) repeat this macro as many times as necessary.

If you can align the tags vertically, you can use the Column Editor for numbering. Let's say you format the XML as follows:

 <MEDIA><MEDIA_ID></MEDIA_ID></MEDIA> <MEDIA><MEDIA_ID></MEDIA_ID></MEDIA> .... <MEDIA><MEDIA_ID></MEDIA_ID></MEDIA>

Now place the cursor between the start and end tags of MEDIA_ID . Select Column Editor... in the Edit menu (shortcut ALT + C). Change the switch to Number to Insert with a starting value of 1001 increasing by 1 (Decimal). Confirm your selection with OK. You should end up with:

 <MEDIA><MEDIA_ID>1001</MEDIA_ID></MEDIA> <MEDIA><MEDIA_ID>1002</MEDIA_ID></MEDIA> .... <MEDIA><MEDIA_ID>1199</MEDIA_ID></MEDIA>

Unfortunately, it seems that these operations cannot be used in a macro. But maybe that helps.
