You can't do it with TB! alone, although you might be able to do what you want by creating a filter that exports the message, and then running a batch file on that exported message to process it. The batch file could open it in an editor with macro capability (I use UltraEdit) that can then extract the required subject and either write it to a text file or to the clipboard. Then when the editor closes the filter could create a message creating the subject from the text file or by pasting the clipboard. -- Robin Using The Bat! v3.0.1.33 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.60.7 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
