Good ideas, Jamie. The second one (replacing the semicolon with the paragraph symbol is what I've started to do. is what I've started to do . I'll try the date thing, too, There are a lot of different dates, but that will get rid of a lot of diuplicates. Thanks.

Like for books where there is a year at the end of them you could replace all of the number followed by a closing parenthesis with that plus a paragraph return. If you have some of the books separated by semi colons (I didn't look that far down the list to see how they are) you could insert the paragraph return there maybe? -- Jamie in Michigan Currently Reading: The Curse of the Holy Pail by Sue Ann Jaffarian See everything I've read this year at: www.michrxtech.com/books.html
