Is there a way to select range of lines in Notepad++? I would like to write two numbers - from and to, say: from 10000 to 25000.

I've got this large MySQL dump file and I can select it only by using some function.

Easiest way:

  1. Ctrl + G, go to line 10,000.

    • Menu > Edit > Begin/End select.

  2. Ctrl + G, go to line 25,000.

    • Menu > Edit > Begin/End select.

You now have your range selected.

Or, simply right click for "Begin/End select" option.
