Otherwise, it fulfills the criteria of removing the characters you requested from the string, therefore the error lies elsewhere either in the original data containing something that isn't being taken into consideration, or the high-lighting working on different rules. One possible issue is the fact that if you remove all comma's and carriage returns, the following: New York, was here will become exploded as: New Yorkwas here Perhaps you don't want to actually remove carriage returns at all, but rather substitute them with spaces - like I said though, it depends on your original data. -- Best regards, Richard mailto:rich@launchcode.co.uk
