Depending on your codepage and/or keyboard it may look like a completely different character. But if you have something that not code-page aware and expects a $ (dollar sign) then it's looking for x'5B'. You have to type whatever character on your keyboard will give you that hex value. -- Walt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
