Hi,

Cannot figure out (new to this) how to write a grep search to match:
        <description><![CDATA[data1: 2820<br>data2 (m): <br>data3: word 
word<br>data4: XX-7-3056<br>data5:<br>data1: 2820<br>data2 (m): <br>data3: 
word word<br>data4: XX-7-3056<br>data5: ]]></description>

Where I want to substitute all similar lines with:
        <description></description>

Thought I could write:
        <description>.*</description>
or possibly with a ? after, but seems I may need more escape characters 
here because some of the characters to be deleted are also grep characters? 
Tried witch escapes too, but cannot get it quite right apparently ... .

All the best,
Jerry
