Impossible with sed. You can use awk.

Output of: 'cat testpart'

SOMETEXT#1
 SOMETEXT#2 
 SOMETEXT#3 
SOMETEXT#4

SOMETEXT#1
 SOMETEXT#2 
</div></body></html>
SOMETEXT#3

Output of: awk 'BEGIN {sawpattern=0} "^SOMETEXT, ^SOMETEXT" {if (($0 ~
/ SOMETEXT/ ) && (sawpattern == 0)) {sawpattern=1} else
{sawpattern=0;print $0}}' testpart

SOMETEXT#1
 SOMETEXT#3 
SOMETEXT#4

SOMETEXT#1
</div></body></html>
SOMETEXT#3

That seems to be what you are looking for.

thank you, and sorry, if i had formulated wrong, but the "SOMETEXT#X"
is a random STRING, like:

$ cat testfile.txt
alsjflsajfkljasdf

 kldfjlkasjdfasdf 
kasfjxcvklajdflas

yxcvkjasafjads
 asdfjkldjlasj

$ awk 'BEGIN {sawpattern=0} "^SOMETEXT, ^SOMETEXT" {if (($0

Hahahaha,

I see that you posted this in quite a few places. Let me repeat it here
then. BTW, do a bit of homework if you do need fine tuning before
posting back on this list.

awk 'BEGIN {sawpattern=0} "^[[:alpha:]], ^[[:alpha:]]" {if (($0
~/ [[:alpha:]]/ )&& (sawpattern == 0)) {sawpattern=1}
else {sawpattern=0;print $0}}' testfile.txt

I don't know how your files are exactly formatted. Please look up the
documentation if you need to further finetune.

I have not really understood your question, but maybe this will help you:

http://www.grymoire.com/Unix/Sed.html#uh-51

I would go someway along the lines of removing the newline at the end,
then replacing the full expression.
