Thanks google but...

I did do extensive searching here to no avail... I found many variations, but none that inserted a blank line if not found. In fact, in reviewing the thread you linked I still don't see the answer. I am a bit sleep deprived since we've been working around the clock to get ready for registration at the college I work for... so I do apologize... but please help just the same. (smile)

This is not homework... I am the acting system administrator (newbie) at a Saint Augustine's College in Raleigh, NC.

I need this file to help the business office compare a list of students who have pre-registered for classes to a list of students who have been awarded financial aid. This way they will know which students have enough aid to pay for classes without manually researching each students account.

Again, thanks again for your reply.

Default value is 60. --verdict header sets the text header to be printed on each first page of the students copies. This text may contain CR characters for multi-line headers.
