No sam my question was a onist one. I wanted to know what advantage you saw in doing a thing. I was also pointing out that no deviation from standards happened here. Just a different standard was used. I also stated that I thought we should have a choice of witch method we wanted to used. Note this is coming so no problem really. I also pointed out that in most programs that support formatting you can do what you want already. The question of why you wouldn't want the formatting was a onist one. The fact is I have never been in a situation where I did not want it so wanted to know why one wouldn't want it. sorry was just asking a question for my own personal education. I was not trying to imply in the slightest that you should not have that ability. Like I said you already have that ability with programs that support formatting. Hth

I can do this faster than you can, my dad is stronger than your da ... it's frickin crazy!

You forgot to assign a hot key to Notepad and shave a few more seconds off your time.
