You could change the script you have, just deleting the six character phrase "\[Due:" wherever you see it. But that is just a guess, not knowing what the feeds look like. It would be better if you'd show us a multi-line feed output so we can see what the desirable and undesirable lines look like. In the example you gave, *all* lines were desirable, which made some of the program wasteful. But perhaps in a fuller example, there are some undesirable lines. The change I'm suggesting might not eliminate them; it depends what they look like. m. -- matt neuburg, phd = matt@tidbits.com, http://www.tidbits.com/matt/ Tiger - http://www.takecontrolbooks.com/tiger-customizing.html AppleScript - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0596102119 Read TidBITS!
