As a newbie to textPipe Pro I would like some help with the following problem I have been trying to work on for several hours no. It's probably quite simple, but I'm having a mental block.
Does anyone know what script filter step I need to add to accomplish the following:
I have several thousand names and addresses in an unstructured format. The bulk of the text I can reorgnise quite simply but the following has stumped me.
Any help would be much appreciated.
I would like to go from:

|
| TextPipe uses 'filters' to perform changes to each file. A 'filter list' is a sequence of changes, like 3 different search and replace operations.
|
| You can add filters from the menus above - Convert, Add, Remove, Email, Replace, Special, Maps, Restrict.
|
| For:
| * Search/replace - look in the Replace Menu
| * Unix/DOS/Mainframe End-of-line conversion - look in the Convert Menu
| * Extract email addresses - look in the Email Menu
| * Remove HTML codes - look in the Remove Menu
| * Join (merge) files together - look in the Special Menu
| * Split files apart - look in the Special Menu
| * Join files and then sort them - add a Special Menu\Merge filter followed by a Special Menu\Sort filter
|
| Just click the menu item to add the filter.
|
| This filter is a comment filter that is useful to document what you are trying to achieve.
|
| Please read the text under the 'Comments' tab.
