Answer 1

You just need 2 rules:

1) If line starts with 'Attribute' then don't delete. 2) If line starts with 'Attribute' set a flag to start deleting all subsequent lines.

Rule #1 will prevent you from deleting subsequent Attribute lines, and there should be nothing you want to keep after the first Attribute you encounter unless it's an Attribute.
