I probably am doing something wrong, and I will doubtless figure it out eventually, but logically my algorithm works -- it worked in Classic. I can only say that, no matter how much more "logical," NWP seems harder to program than Classic. It may be just that the conversions from PowerFind to PowerFindPro are erratic (as witness the business with the periods), since in Classic, I could write my more elaborate REs in PowerFind. This has not worked well in NWP.

It sounds like it. Thank you.
