I know the sample can be multiple lines, but on the version I use i can only then choose one line of the sample on which to specify trap character occurences.

Hi Mike,

With Monarch 6 it is still only possible to trap on one line. The added functionality in the newer version, for trapping, is a Floating Trap. This option allows you to trap on a value that can display in different positions on the line.

Some text files can be rather difficult to trap. If you would like to forward your Report and Model file to my email address, I'd be happy to take a look at it for you.
