right oombera,
This commands does the same what perderabo wrote and it is running fine ... it looked like to me it was deleting first line but when I saw it closely .. it was delelting from pattern to the next pattern and hence leaving the lines after it finds the pattern second time ...
so result lookes like it's delelting first line but actually it was deleting half the record..


cheers
