Thanks, that worked great. Sed is such a great tool. I had a 250K text file with odd formatting that would have blown up the next tool in the chain and sed fixed it in 23s. At times, it does look a bit like hieroglyphics, and I really need to find my notes, but there is nothing like the right tool for the job.
Thanks again,
