Thanks. I was simply confused in that I believed escaping []-^ could be done in character classes. I had where they could be put to avoid the escaping correct, I just thought escaping could be used as well. I'm very glad to have myself disabused of that notion, so again, thanks! =8^) (RE: The other discussion, I /think/ it was this group/list. See what I mean about the benefit of posting to a group where someone's likely to be able to popup and correct any error I might make! Everyone benefits! I certainly did, being disabused of such a notion, which could prove frustrating were I to try to use it. =8^) -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
