Please consider allowing a regular expression search that matches multiple lines of the document to be book marked as a set of lines instead of just the first line. I use this to extract sections of text out into new documents. Tried using macros but have been unable to do using them.

Thanks for the idea. I have tried Mark All. It only bookmarks the first line in the search if the regular expression matches multiple lines.

Mark All bookmarks all the lines that match the regular expression. Do you have Word Wrap turned on (in the Configure menu)? Try turning it off.

It doesn't mark all lines of a multi-line match.
