I would assume so.  Didn't know about the ?c...c option, but it sounds
like one of those things Powerpro would be expected to process before
plugin sees the string.

Yeah, I was looking for ways around reg plugin users having to escape 
the escape character.   ?c...c should work fine for those who don;t 
like \\, and I'm guessing I don't have to do anything to plugin.

I don't have latest beta installeed so can;t test, but perhaps someone
who uses reg.dll and has latest beta could test c?...c and \\ options 
and make sure they work okay?

I'm not sure over-excitement is permitted on Wednesdays.
