@Don Cragun:

Thanks for the heads up.

One last question for the road: What might the proper syntax be to simply allow the OP commandline to add one line to the region which is deleted? Been having a goose of a time with braces, semicolons, et al; all while trying to get a grip on the logic flow...

While not exactly a full solution (unlike the awk blocks presented by MadeInGermany and RavinderSingh13), it'd help broaden my syntax mastery just a wee bit Smilie

Thanks again --
