Well, you have to define the word-removal. If you're removing the word at the beginning of a sentence, TRAILING spaces must be removed, and the next letter capitalized! If you're removing the word in the middle or at the end of a sentence, LEADING spaces must be removed. That's a bit complex, no? -- Jeff "japhy" Pinyan [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pobox.com/~japhy/ RPI Acacia brother #734 http://www.perlmonks.org/ http://www.cpan.org/ ** Look for "Regular Expressions in Perl" published by Manning, in 2002 ** <stu> what does y/// stand for? <tenderpuss> why, yansliterate of course.
