No problem sir.
Here is an updated version, as it fails, when you do not remove line-feeds from the text.
This version removes line-feeds, hyphens, commas and punctuation, you can choose to remove the others, just not the removal of line-feeds.
It is way fast(er) when you run the process from the control room.
But that said, this could probably be (a bit) faster when and if you wrote some vbnet/c# code instead.
See updated version attached.
Good luck :)
