Hi Graham. I'd already seen your very helpful site during my earlier
search. Thanks a lot! I guess I'll brush up on my VB skills.

The images are a different issue. If you can come up with a means of
identifying which images (particularly if they vary between documents) then
it *may* be possible to handle the graphics also.

SnagIt's printer capture driver is a handy way of creating PDF files based
on graphical representations of the documents so that redacted text cannot
be restored by the user from the PDF.
