Thanks Doug,
I'll be sure to play with that as soon as I get off work.
In the lines that say:
myrange.Start = myrange.start + InStr(myrange, ",")
myrange.End = myrange.Paragraphs(1).Range.End
That includes everything from the comma to the paragraph marker,
including the marker. How would I alter that second line to include
everything up to the paragraph marker but not the paragraph marker itself?
Regards,
Alan Stancliff
