I havn't changed the record separator, but I do know I get much more than the first line of the file I mentioned. In fact, I get all the multiples of lines before the <PRE> tag, and all the lines after the </PRE> tag (which is 95% of the file). Plus this code has worked fine for the many files I've processed before, so I don't think the record separator is at fault.
