Thanks!
Because it took me a while to figure out, I will repeat for others what I
did:
First change display field to LDR. Then import the file. :-)
Put in the search field exactly what Terry has, including the quotes and
the 7 periods:
"^.......s"
And it works. I have no idea how I got away with the other searches
before, but it was *years* ago that I used that strategy.
