Sorry for the email blitz...

Slight correction to my procedure:

   1. Right-click on Consensus
   2. Export using the Jalview format
   3. Delete everything from the text output through the word "PID"
   4. Replace All pipes (|) with line breaks (\r)
   5. Replace All spaces ( ) with commas (,)
   6. Replace All semi-colons (;) with nothing
   7. Save as a csv file
   8. Import into Excel
