All OK I'm halfway home. The expand box adding the carriage return works. So how do you delete a line that only has a carriage return it it ? I did't really want to insert the " " but the function wouldn't let me set it to NULL.

Fore example, you would have: REPLACE($FIELD$, "Bob is here. ", " ") Just hit return after your period, and it should work. You will have to use your expand box function to be able to hit return. Whenever you hit Okay on the expand box window that pops up, the new line will show up as a NPC (Non printable character), such as a solid block.

Basically I need to search for a certain 1 line sentence & remove it. Using the example below it only finds the string and replaces it with a space. I need it to find the string + the carriage return and replace it with nothing.
