This may be a string question or maybe there is another way. Lets say I have a client e-mail list that looks like this:

[email]|[name]
bob@test.com|Bob Smith
jim@anyco.com|Jim Jones
ralph@yahoo.com|Ralph Myguttsup

And I have a 2nd list of just e-mail addresses like this:

harry@aol.com
barney@rubble.com
jim@anyco.com
sara@hotmail.com

Any I want to remove any item from the client list that contains an item in the remove list. I can do this if the first list is just e-mail addresses, but am not sure how to do it when the first list also has another field of info.

Well, don't do it with ListComp.

Cycle through the items in list 2, check with @match if @item(2)| is in list 1.
If yes then remove the item from list 1. I'd parse the @item(1) first to check that part1 is identical to @item(2)

Ya ya, I figured I could do that -- I just like using string as it does things some quick and simple.
