If you download a name or date from on line with out removing the HTML mark up, 
when you run potential problems dates and sometimes names will come up like 
listed below.  It is part of the HTML mark up on information from on line.  I 
always place information I find into the notes and remove the HTML before using 
it in Legacy.
