I have "some" basic programming skills (see sites I already programmed by myself: http://www.realsimplenetwork.com/ , http://store.sprout.net/insideBio/index.php , http://www.rbclick.com/ , http://www.whataboutjoan.com , http://www.ricki.com/index.htm , http://www.theshowaboutnothing.com/ (Official Seinfeld Site) and some more sites...) BUT I expect to find here some people they will TEACH me something I still do not know (and, of course, there is a still a lot of things I do not know). 2. I'm sorry not being specific: the large text file is simply .txt file. A huge amount of text with email addresses within it. I never had a problem like this and just wanted some ideas, like Michael Kelly did it. 3. I found solution. Afan
