Hi RB,

Given that you've marked the text for deletion in red, a simple Find/Replace for red text will take care of that.

As for the problem of everything being in tables, that is a common problem with data copied from web pages. It's often best to convert all tables, including nested ones, to text and then, if you want certain items in table form, to revert (re-convert) only those items to tables. Thankfully, the convert to text process usually keeps the formatting info intact for the reversion.
