I have a large keyword list that I want to remove certain phrases with specific keywords, are there any free tools?
 


I'm not sure what you're saying

I want to remove the entire phrase with a particular keyword

example if I have a list of Dell laptops and then in the list there is Dell laptop sound cards, I want to remove the entire phrase with sound, not just the particular keyword "sound".

Is something like this possible in Excel?
 
grep and find operate on whole lines, so if you have a file with "Dell laptop sound cards" and do a

grep -vi "sound" keywords.txt > keywords2.txt
or
find /v /i "sound" keywords.txt > keywords2.txt

it will drop the whole line, not just the word "sound"

sorry, I know you're trying to help but I have no idea what you're talking about..

grep? where do you type this command... I've never heard of this command.

find /v /i where do I type these comands?

is this in the command line? I have windows vista

again sorry for sounding dumb,

I was hoping there is a keyword tool that I can just type the keyword in, I probably have 20-30 keywords I don't want to type in this entire command for every keyword.

I have keyword elite and I can load my kwrd list in there and in a box just type in the keywords I want to remove. although I just got a new laptop and the software is licensed on the old computer, I e-mailed them don't know if I'm going to get a response or when since I'm out of warranty or support time frame
 
Sorry for not being more clear, these are command line tools. "grep" is a Unix tool, "find" is a similar one for Windows. I don't know of an easy way to do 30 keywords from the command line.

I tried some excel stuff but I don't know any way to do 30 keywords at a time, either.

you can do it in excel. the easiest way by far though is to download this tool

Revenuewire's keyword tool

Hit the "scrub" tab. load your keyword list. in the line that says "remove lines containing words...", check that box, and enter in the words you want it to remove.
