Hmm... I've never used THE, but I do notice that in your REXX program the strings are delimited by single-quotes. In your C program, they are no doubt delimited by double-quotes. Perhaps THE treats the two kinds of quotes differently? At any rate, you now know the source of the TABs. - MacK. ----- Edmund R.
