Hi Craig, filter "abcdef" with "c" gives empty because abcdef is not c filter "abcdef" with "*c*" returns abcdef because abcdef contains c.
Filter affects lines, not chars. If you want to remove all c chars in abcdef then you need to use the replace command: replace "c" with "x" in "abcdef" -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 Become our partner in sales http://qery.us/1bq Start selling Color Converter today. 20% commission!
