With regular expressions turned on I believe either \t or ^$ will find what you are looking for. Also in the AOO help files on the index tab search for regular expressions and you will see a listing for list. That link will take you to a list of regular expression with a short blurb on what they will find. I hope this helps. Regards Keith
