Yes, this method is definitely faster than the tab replace method I
described, as long as you make it case sensitive so you don't happen to
delete a part of the text containing the same words as the header. Header
text is especially likely to appear if it is a chapter title, but I've also
seen the words of the book title appear in the body of the text.

Lissi,
The location of the text from the header isn't an issue with removing them
all at once, but their content is. They need to be identical for you to
remove them all at once. This can be done with a global search and replace
if you're very careful. In the best case, the header is very unique or in
all caps and can be replaced without having to worry over removing anything
from the main text. I'd suggest selecting the pages where you want to
remove the headers, though, because you don't want to accidentally delete
any text from the frontmatter or the book jacket like the title or author's
name.
If you aren't sure how to do global search and replaces yet or know much about them, then maybe you should get someone to give you a lesson.
HTH

Dear Volunteer Friends,
If a book has the title on all even numbered pages and the chapter name on
the odd pages, is there a way to delete all of each different title with one
set of commands? I can't leave them as they are for the stripper to remove because they appear randomly sometimes above the page number and sometimes under it. Getting rid of them one by one is OK, but I thought I'd check.
Thanks in advance!
Hmmm, Thanks in advance without the exclamation mark is 15 characters so does that mean it equals TIA X 5?
Always with love,
Lissi
