Quickest was to compare 2 CR lists?

[Terry Judd]

That looks pretty good to me. Maybe put a CR at the front and back of list 2
and then...

local newList

repeat for each line theLine in list1
  if list2 contains cr&theLine&cr then
    put tLine&cr after newList
  end if
end repeat
delete last char of newList

...that way you'll avoid partial matches (unless you want them).

Terry...
