i need a function that remove some parts of a paragraph, its final and the firsts lines according to this: 1)eliminate its final: given a string, search that string into text and eliminate all the rest from that string. 2)eliminate the firsts lines, given the "n" number of text strings eliminate the first "n" of text rows ----------------------------------------------------------------EXAMPLE---------------------------------------- here the text: William Shakespeare From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Shakespeare was born and brought up in Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire. At the age of 18, he married Anne Hathaway, with whom he had three children: Susanna and twins Hamnet and Judith. Some time between 1585 and 1592, he began a successful career in London as an actor, writer, and part-owner of a playing company called the Lord Chamberlain's Men, later known as the King's Men. At age 49 around 1613, he appears to have retired to Stratford, where he died three years later. Few records of Shakespeare's private life survive, which has stimulated considerable speculation about such matters as his physical appearance, sexuality, religious beliefs and whether the works attributed to him were written by others.[8][9][10] These speculations are often criticized for failing to point out the fact that few records survive of most commoners of his period. 1) to eliminate from the substring "strat" 2)to eliminate the first 3 lines with text the results were: At the age of 18, he married Anne Hathaway, with whom he had three children: Susanna and twins Hamnet and Judith. Some time between 1585 and 1592, he began a successful career in London as an actor, writer, and part-owner of a playing company called the Lord Chamberlain's Men, later known as the King's Men. At age 49 around 1613, he appears to have retired to Strat as you can see i have removed the last part and the first 3 lines with text

Hi, there. My name's Paris Pallas and I'm a very experienced Excel developer. I read your brief and the two steps you mention are among things I work with on a daily basis. I suggest using code which will make your spreadsheet rather flexible and responsive to future changes. All you'll have to do is press a single button after changing (or not) 2 variables, thus the number of first lines to be removed and the substring after which you need the text to be cut off. I'm really excited and I'm looking forward to hearing from you. I'll wait for your call. Regards

Hi Got the example but need to know the part about n number of text strings. In the example it's only 1 string. I can create a webpage to take input paragraph and achieve the results (as you require) and show output. This can also be done in PHP if you want the output to be saved in file (or if you want to read input file as well, we can read/write excel spreadsheets this way). Let me know if you are interested. Looking forward to seeing your reply. Thanks. Regards Ahsan

The function will remove the 3 first lines of the text and the final text started in the substring given. It is a trivial function for me. I am here to do a nice job and do receive 5 stars.
