Subject: RE: Tech: File Editing Help
Bill, that's a great find. I'll have to remember that one.
I was going to suggest searching for a copy of the UNIX sed utility compiled to run under Windows so mass edits could be performed using regular expressions. It would have been a very fast way to edit the file created by JohnInKansas' DIR step. Of course learning regular expressions might take a long time for the uninitiated.
I use Cygwin over Windows XP Pro so I always have UNIX at my fingertips.
