I do the phone number formatting with a sweet little filter plugin. Email me off the list for more information. Doug "UWIP" Tanner

Joe, As far as I know it would only work at the ARS Filter layer. My understanding is that AIE uses the ARS API [and/or the CMDB api that is based on the ARS api] to create/update ARS data. ( Although I have yet to find in the docs the exact conditions that the filters would need to be set to fire on, I would guess Merge.) Maybe that point in time is to late for your comparisons in AIE? If so you may need to keep the "unformated" versions in hidden values so that the comparisons can be done to those values. -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Love, then teach Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap....
