Not just _any_ new line character: A combination of the new line character on the end of one row, plus the phrase at the beginning of the following row. Removing the new line characters willy-nilly will leave a one-row file with all 750,000 lines all concatenated together ... I've done that inadvertently. What I did do was to divide those 750,000 rows into twenty 50,000 row files and then apply search & replace in Leafpad, which took a couple of minutes for each file. It took longer to subdivide the original file by hand ... George Langford
