You need to use a pattern containing Repeated pieces. Define a list to work with. x = {{1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6}, {1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6}, {1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6}, {1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6}, {1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6}, {1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6}, {1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6}}; Filter using the appropriate pattern Cases[x, p : {1, 1, (1) .., 2, 2, (2) .., 3, 3, (3) .., 4, 4, (4) ..., 5, 5, (5) .., 6, 6, (6) ..}] A shorter version of the same thing. Cases[x, p : Flatten[Table[{i, i, (i) ..}, {i, 6}]]] Steve Luttrell "Diana" <diana53xiii at earthlink.remove13.net> wrote in message news:c5qj8m$fvs$1 at smc.vnet.net... > Hi math folks, > > I have a 24 - 455 table.
