Hi Justin,

it is easy when copying the results to the clipboard:
deselect Edit>Options/Input/Output Options>Copy Column Headers

Files - on linux or MacOS (terminal), this deletes the first line:
(gnu awk is also available for Windows, you can run it in a DOS window)
   awk 'NR>1' <inputFile >outputFile
