in thread re-ordering lines of text in a file?

Thank you.

You got the old mental gears turning, and even pointed me in the right direction with that tutorial.

Figured out *why* the shell script was not working .... the 'expression'. Instead of grep 'term-goes-here', it needed to be grep 'term-goes-here.*'. That returns the rest of the line with the 'expression'.

I learned something anyways ... Thank You.
