Good morning Andrew,
I should have done this before. Below is a clipping from the mail
logfile containing one of the sections I'm trying to search/highlight
for. The hyphens are on seperate lines and kind of delineate that
particular email transaction.

Sorry I didn't post this before. So I would like to be able to search
for and highlight the portion starting at "timesheet" (perhaps "FROM:
timesheet"?) through a potentially varying number of lines to the line
with "Winsock Error"; then be able to hit "n" for next to go to the
next occurrence of this Winsock error from timesheet. Hope this makes
it more clear.
thanks again!
