THANKS EVERYONE for the advice. I've abandoned any hope of getting it to work and so have retooled with simply using a hyphen. I have tried all brackets and get the same result. The pageframe is not subclassed and nothing makes sense. I guess I am a bit surprised something as odd and annoying as this wasnt fixed many years ago but I guess that is the cross we bear when using Fox.
