Hello!

I have a regexp that works great in Trados for changing for example "a", "b" and "c" to „a“, „b“ and „c“:

Search: "(.*?)"
Replace: „$1“

But when I use it in Phrase, it does find "a", "b" and "c", but replaces them with „($1)“, „($1)“ and „($1)“.
Am I doing something wrong or is this kind of replacement not possible in Phrase?

Found the solution:
Replace: „\1“
