Ah Shucks. Couldn't you have just left him believing I was awsome, Larry? God knows, I don't get many "awesome's" these days! Mike

"charpos ------------------- Use a semicolon to position the insertion point immediately after the last character displayed. ..... ..... If charpos is omitted, the next character is printed on the next line." -- Rick (MVP - Excel)

Now I think you're 'awesome' for bringing that to light! Thanks! -- Garry Free usenet access at http://www.eternal-september.org ClassicVB Users Regroup! comp.lang.basic.visual.misc |
