oops (resend) - I typed the Lingo too quickly & didn't test it -

you can also clean a char out by chunking through the items

if a field(1) holds this:

From: "Jayp" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
To: "TomH" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
etc.

you can clean out the quotes (or any specific character) by calling

member(1).text = clean(member(1).text, QUOTE)

on clean str, aChar
   the itemDelimiter = aChar
   c = str.items.count
   newString = ""
   repeat with i = 1 to c
     newString = newString & str.item[i]
   end repeat
   return newString
end
