Thanks, Neil. I'd been hoping to avoid scratch documents, but that WOULD
do the job, so why not?
Thanks again,
Rick Gordon

entitled "Re: How Can I Search for All Lines NOT Matching a Complex Regex
String":
1. Copy the entire document to a new document.
2. Use the *add line numbers* command to add line numbers to the
lines in the new document.
3. Use the *process lines containing *command on the new document,
using your grep pattern, with the *output options* parameter set
to *{ copying to clipboard: false, copying to new document: false,
deleting matched lines: true, reporting results: false }*.
Now your new document should contain just the lines of the original
document that don't match your grep pattern, prefixed with their
original line numbers.
