>hey I took latin in high school, sorry Exceptio probat regulam de rebus non exceptus. Exceptis excipiendis. Uh, Sorry, =DCber-Botany Geek -- Speak Latin like a MONK! The above is hil= arious if you know Latin. ;-) Alas, the high-bit chars ARE font-specific, and mapped differently between = Windows and MacOS. All is not lost however. You should be able to cross-map between one and t= he other. =A8 is caled an "umlaut". The "o" with a ' is either a grav=E9 or an acute accent depending on whethe= r it points left or right. Other accents for "o" are the umlaut, tilde, or= circumflex. Yup, language maven here! My apologies for being short on example code this evening. Anyone reading = the list today knows why. --B Brian McNett, Webmaster, Mycoinfo ************************************************************* http://www.mycoinfo.com/ The world's first mycology e-journal.
