I have a file which each line that ends with Mar 15, 2013 and other dates so I need to remove the end of each line say the last 13 characters
Mar 15, 2013
Each line
As others already said, use a regex search in the search and replace dialogue (ctrl + h) with the pattern the dates follow. Given your example this should do:
[A-Za-z]{3}\s(\d){1,2},\s?\d{4}$
Replace with empty string.
