You'll probably find the line word counts are inconsequential.

Ok thanks. I'll have a look at it.

Hi


Ok thanks again. I ran the code from the link you sent. Very good. I think though it does a bigger job than I need really.



I suspect what I need could be centred around paragraph returns and full stops. So that at a return the text below is brought up , and ignored at full stops. Maybe other things too. I'll attach a sample file for to look at and hopefully it will be clearer.



The text in the sample becomes more and more fractured the further it goes on.



Anyway , I'm grateful for your advice. Much appreciated.




Very Best Wishes ,
