    Hi,
    I've got 2 lists with several colums and I want to merge them in the following way. Is this somehow possible with UE, or do I have to use other software (Excel,..) or programming language (Visual Basic, Perl)?
    note: The names of List1 are less than in List2, cause they are just a subset.

    List 1:
    name1 TAB address1 TAB phone1
    name3 TAB address3 TAB phone3
    name4 TAB address4 TAB phone4
    name6 TAB address6 TAB phone6

    List 2:
    name1 TAB email1
    name2 TAB email2
    name3 TAB email3
    ....
    name6 TAB email6

    Merged List:
    name1 TAB address1 TAB phone1 TAB email1
    name3 TAB address3 TAB phone3 TAB email3
    name4 TAB address4 TAB phone4 TAB email4
    name6 TAB address6 TAB phone6 TAB email6

      The macro needs the property Continue if a Find with Replace not found checked. It will work currently (UE v12.10a) only for ASCII files because of the IfEof bug on Unicode/UTF-8 files. You must have only the 2 files open and the file with list 1 must have the focus when you execute the macro. Every name in first column must be unique or the macro will fail. Blank lines (= lines without ANY character) in list 1 are ignored (IfCharIs 13 == IfCharIs Carriage Return).
