Windows 7: Using notepad to search wildcards

Using notepad to search wildcards

Hi all,

Can notepad search for wildcard terms? I have the following term as an example in an XML file which I would like to search and remove:
<doc>1</doc>
<doc>2</doc>
<doc>3</doc>
<doc>4</doc>
etc.

I basically would like to search for every term that contains <doc>*</doc> and delete.



I don't think this is possible in notepad, does anyone know of any other way I can achieve this?

Many thanks!
