We cannot necessarily just bestow an answer upon you. How about this. What does the "file" command say about this file? I.e., say your file is named "reallyReallyBigFile," run this command: % file reallyReallyBigFile And tell us what it says. The only reason I can think that grep could not handle a very large file is that it does not have proper line breaks. > -afan Randall Schulz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
