My apologies. Clearly your email didn't describe what you did at all... The way it was worded didn't express that information. I see you have posted some information in a subsequent email...

I don't mean to sound smart...but have you tried it?  Run a test?

It might be time better spent if you run a test, it fails then email the
list?

hello, will the following example replace everything between '#example
' and
'#end example.*' ? I am trying to strip the following from a file;

#example -- do not remove this line!
test1 #comment
test2
$
test3 #another comment
.
#end example -- do not remove this line!

everything between '#example' and '#end example.*' must be stripped out.

here is my expression:
<replaceregex pattern="#example(\n.)+#end example.*" replace=""
flags="g" />

Thanks!
