Chris, Slosh and others...

Yes, you're right.  Python might be my friend right now.

I'm just testing something, report back soon.

Cheers Don

According to this I should be able to use regular expressions in grep.

I just don't quite understand what I'm doing wrong.

Except I only wanted "22115 36400 B" (without the quotes).

From what I understand grep will return an entire line when it matches a
