Thanks Brian, you are correct in all the above information. My main problem with this issue is that OTHER characters (aside from plus and space) may not work properly in this situation as well, but we do not have a list of those 'other' characters.It seems to me that the people who programmed the software could easily give us a list of all the characters that will not work properly in this situation, instead of making us guess at it.How about it SMSI? -- Sincerely, Kenneth Grome ------------------------------------------------------------- My programmers will write WebDNA code for you at $27 an hour! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
