Perhaps it can replace them with legal characters (' for , a space for line feed, etc). It already replaces non-5 or 9 digit ZIPs...For now, I can use [CONVERTCHARS], but I think this would be a pretty good feature to add.MichaelMichael Winston *By e-mail!: michaelw@dhorse.com Internet Coordinator *By web!: http://www.dhorse.com/ Dark Horse Comics, Inc. *By fax!: 503/654/9440 Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
