Perhaps we could help better if you fully explained the input, and desired output.
Odds are that a Pipeline will do what you want. Lot easier and much faster than Xedit macros.

Yea, I’ve used it a little bit. Expertise with *nix probably helps there. So far, my biggest question is how to look at the stuff being written to the various queues. I’ll find that too eventually, it just takes a lot of manual digging.

No sweat, we've all been there - done that. Wait until you start trying to wrap your head around the 'Pipethink' needed to successfully and productively (amazingly productively) use CMS Pipelines!

Hmmm, I looked at “LOCATE” in the manual, and it wasn’t immediately obvious that it would work. Apologies for the excess email!

OK, I finally figured out why I could never find anything in XEDIT. The text must be at the start of the line. Hmmm…I am *sure* I am the first person to ask this question, but…umm…how would I do a normal find, so that I can find any text in any part of any line? J Apologies for the stupid questions, I am still working on learning some of the finer points of VM.
