I'm sorry but i've been struggling with how to capture the value of some text in a table. i need to select this value by first finding the string "Project Number" in a simple table and then capturing the value, in this example "1153" as a variable so I can do stuff. If someone could please help with this its much appreciated. I'm trying to use parent, next, contains, children... etc. and not getting it. -thanks Dave
