Find and Replace Multiple Lines?

Greetings,
I have a set of links on a website that I would like to rearrange a bit better across all of the site. I've tried several 'search and replace' programs but nothing has worked how I want so far. Most only can search for 1 or 2 lines, but not multiple ones. The block of code is around 34 lines.
I found one program called File Substring Replacement Utility 8.0 that would search for multiple strings but it gave an error saying it couldn't rearrange them.
Does anyone know of a program that can do what I'm looking for? I'd prefer freeware if possible but won't turn shareware down either.

It's not free but Dreamweaver MX does the job really well. I added a script to all my text links on 150+ pages in a matter of five minutes.
Maybe dl a trial to get your immediate task done?

Thank you Dave02. Actual Search and Replace helped tremendously. I found out it was better to replace 5 links at a time instead of trying to do all 13 at once.
SullyD, I tried Dreamweaver MX 2004 out of curiousity but it kept crashing and freezing my system. If my aging computer was bit newer, it probably would've worked ok. Thanks for the suggestion anyways.
