%SETPATTREGEXP='(?s)Buyer:(.*:)(\S*)'%REGEXPBLINDMATCH='%text'%- %SUBPATT=' 2' More secure in what you get will nevertheless be: %SETPATTREGEXP='(?s)^Buyer:(.*?):.*?(\S+)$'%REGEXPBLINDMATCH='%text'%- $SUBPATT='2' If you really only need what %SUBPATT='2' gives it can be simplified to %SETPATTREGEXP='(?s)^Buyer:.*?:.*?(\S+)$'%REGEXPMATCH='%text' Disclaimer: all this is 'untested' and 'from memory', albeit it should be (at most) correctly you should do intensive tests with several patterns to make sure results are as expected. -- Pit ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
