So if you need to delete 3 and 5, deleting 5 moves 6-last down, and 3 is not affected, and is in the right place for deletion. Per a recent thread, at *some* length, it may make sense to step through and copy (repeat for each line) rather than modify the target, as each deletion causes a recopy from that point on of the target. -- Dr. Richard E.
