I hope that makes sense. Here is an example - let's say that I have a document that contains hundreds of phone numbers - but along with the phone numbers there are tons of extra typing I don't want. How can I quickly extract ONLY the phone numbers and place them into a new document in a nice list? Or am I pipe-dreaming? LOL! TIA! And have a great day!! »
