Hi all
I have about 200 text files where I need to delete the text between
multiple occurrences of 2 constant strings. For example
Return-Path
various text here
Date
Can someone suggest a suitable quick method of deleting this text between
Return-Path and Date across multiple files. I have been playing with Ed
but have not come up with a suitable solution yet.
Cheers
Shaun
