No, I think im confusing you now :-) in some cases the invoice number is on line 26, and it other cases the invoice number is on line 27. all runs fine when the invoice number is on line 27 because theres nothing on line 26 to print so therfore it leaves it but its messing up when the invoice is

Just noticed you're using rematch there - which is good since ListToArray will remove blank lines (not what we want). However, you can simplify it - instead of the crlf variable you can do: And, once you're there, it's one extra character to do: Which will work with files that don't have c

Damo, Did you try the attempt I outlined above (reproduced here)? You've got to get the lines into an array first, then you should be able to refer to them by [26] or [27], as Peter and I pointed out. >How about something like this (untested): > > > > > > > > > > >The variable 'invoiceNumber'

As I said, relying on line numbers doesn't seem like a robust method - what happens if the top of the invoice is changed, and it suddenly becomes line 15/16 or 32/33 or something else? Ideally you refer specifically to the location of the invoice number, hence asking for a sample of the invoic
