Now that is a great feature!  Thanks Jim and... Google Kreme (?)  I
don't think I'd ever seen that feature - or, tried it at least.

I *have* been meaning to spend some time getting to know grep, because
I *know* it will be useful, but there are only so many minutes in a
day.

Thank you all!

Tom

Easiest thing would be to "process lines containing" for all the
lines that DO contain the string and put them in new file.

No grep needed.
