  Hi,
  Can you help me out, which function or snippet, or macro is able to do this :
  In an open text file, delete all lines that DO NOT contain the word the user entered in a prompt, or perhaps lines that DO NOT contain the word currently in the Clipboard cache.
  I have a big text file open, and I would like to filter out all lines that DO NOT contain the string “China”.
  Can you help me please ?

  Hi,
  There’s a macro in the Library here. It extracts lines not containing a specified string to a new file.

  Give it a try, hope that helps :-)
