Your second option \sR(\s|$) worked like a charm.

Thanks so much for the insight - huge help!

So try my last option, I think that will be close enough. Maybe use the find function to seek them and check if any that you don’t want selected are still being selected. Then let us see what it is, so that we may better help you.

The additional R’s that are being marked, but I do not wish to remove, are in the middle of lines. See Below.

I suppose what I’m truly getting at is I need to remove all lines with a “singular” or “stand alone” R instead of all R’s throughout the entire file.

Any insight on how to search for singular R’s instead of every R in the file?

Well the description is a bit light on details. Such as how do the other R characters appear? Are they only within text or at least next to other alpha characters. Are they in the middle of lines, not at the end like your example shows for the one you do wish to remove?

If the R you wish to remove was always at the end of a line, then R$ would work, the $ denotes end of line. Possibly \sR(\s|$) might work if you need to test for a leading space, then the R and a trailing space or end of line?
