Thanks,

There doesn't have to be a 'p' or anything else. A page number - such as 128 - is isolated, separate from chapters and surrounded by paragraph tags, in a way that a year or date wouldn't be. The kind of search we're describing here will only select and delete numbers with, say, paragraph tags before and after it. Since years and so forth won't have these - they'll be surrounded by regular text and so forth - they shouldn't be affected.
