Thank you so much, Jamall. You hit the nail on the head. I thought the problem was operator error. I had always used control R rather than Control Shift R. Thanks again.

I just tried that Replace command, and found that \d did match a digit in the text. Unfortunately, regular expression syntax is challenging to learn, but very handy once you get a grip on it. The TextPal documentation includes some references to tutorials on the web. Jamal On Mon, 18 Feb 2008, Donald L. Roberts wrote: > Date: Mon, 18 Feb 2008 15:42:51 -0800 > From: Donald L.
