Hello, I need to remove some information from textpad containing numbers and address(s). In the example, someone sends me information that contains people information with numbers starting. If I did a find and lookup the numbers, i'm only able to copy and paste one information at a time onto a NEW textpad with that particular information. Please see example Example: I have a file that has this information: 2035458| Jonh Doe 2003 Silver Lake st 2034589| John Doe 2008 Silver Lake ave 2035668| John Doe 2005 Silver Lake ave But I'm only give 2035458 2034589 2035668 I need to program that would copy the numbers and the information using a VBscript or .batch script. I then send that inforamtion for processing and I receive almost the same information, but something has changed but not the starting numbers. So everything in front of the numbers need to change, their address , location, etc... Someone please help me with this. Something using VB or .bat would be awesome.

This is kinda like your earlier thread, which you didn't follow up on. http://www.computing.net/answers/pr... Neither is clear on what's needed. ===================================== If at first you don't succeed, you're about average. M2
