*********************************************************** Thanks, Chris. Unfortunately, the email addresses are not on lines by themselves, so "Process lines containing..." copies all of the data on the line. The result is simply a copy of the original document. Strictly speaking, although I view it with soft wrap, it's all one line, since there are no returns in this document.
