How in the world do you respond to your post without
starting a new thread, I do not see a reply, etc

Also, thank you so much for your help.

what does:

.Pattern = "\bwith\b\s+\bsuccess\b"

this mean,

i.e., I thought that you were supposed to put what you wanted to search for in the parameter you crossed off?

I will test this later today and let you know how i did.
once i get familar with how to work around in this forum it will be a great help.

I still did not see the your reply box. dont know why this seems to such a problem.

I ran the reg exp job with the chg you suggested and it ran but I still do not find a match when i am searching through the file that contains has errors in it.

I will read the link you provided and would appreciate any thoughts you may have about what is wrong.

lastly is it possible to only display the message that say found the match and Not have the entire contents of the file print/display?

thank you.

thank you again.

everyone has been so helpful.

this is a great area.
