I read the reviews and thought I should try something a bit more basic so I
ordered: Regular Expressions Cookbook [Paperback]
Jan Goyvaerts (Author), Steven Levithan (Author)
Which appears to be a better introduction for someone my speed.

For some reason this worked well without the line delimiters. With the ^ $,
it only found one line and no more:
 

  Find: ^([A-Z0-9]+) (.*) [0-9]+$
  Replace: \1\t\2

But without the delimiters, it processed the page perfectly.
Thanks for my first lesson in depth OBI-WAN :-)

I really appreciate it.
