But if you do a search like you describe, you're going to zap chapter titles as well, at least many of them, because they become a running header until the next new chapter title appears. Sure, you won't cut out the simple ones like chapter 1, chapter 2 etc. But those are not all that important as compared with actual titles to chapters that may tell you something about what the chapter's contents are. And it also will not get rid of page numbers. When pleasure reading, I do not want headers, except chapter titles, and I do not want page numbers. I understand that others do, which is why I('m hoping for some intelligent approach that can satisfy both sides, not just one or the other. Mary
