Replying to myself is bad form but I totally forgot to mention that I already found substring and tried that. All that does is cause the sucker to go Kaboom! Switch one from Raw Data to Subtring, save the template and then try to make a report. Insane display, old data shows through, the options to pick folders to save the report and output are empty, etc. You can enable PARAMS in the create template view and Substring appears to be the only thing that is non-zero. Is this a part of the UI still under construction and it should be asking for a pair (pos,len)? of parameters when using it?
