Tried that, it doesn't do what I need. To be specific, as an example I want to convert the following text:
sample1.txt<Paragraph Break> sample2.txt<PB> sample3.txt<PB> into sample1; sample2; sample3 and doing a S&R for ".txt$" to be replaced with ";<space> " doesn't remove the breaks, just the .txt which is repladed with "; " ie sample1;<Space><PB> sample2;<S><PB> sample3;<S><PB> etc. where am I going wrong?

Hi Ed, From the list of regular expressions in help: $ Only finds the search term if the term appears at the end of a paragraph. Special objects such as empty fields or character-anchored frames at the end of a paragraph are ignored.
