I ranted about this sometime ago but the phylosophy behind GREP in MC is for one liners only I was told... This was true for MC up to 2.4.1, but in 2.4.2 when Scott put in PCRE, all that changed. You can now use the (?s) modifier to treat a multilined string as a single chunk for processing.

Does the group's appearance change? If not then I think your best bet would be to take a series of screen snapshots, combine/merge/modify/Resize in Photoshop then import back into your project. This will give you the best result. Eric Thinker Toys,Inc.
