Wonderful - thanks, Don

BTW, since all the line number are of the form "number:" you should be able to get rid of them with a "regular expression" search and replace.

This should work:

Search for: [0-9]*\:
Replace by: <nothing>

and check the "RegEx" box.

ie search for an arbitrarily long sequence of the characters 0-9, followed by a colon.
