Thanks anyway Matt Please reply to the list, and not just an individual person. Anywho, if you want to address an element whose name contains special characters, the above way does work. If these are check boxes, you have to loop thru them. If these are text, you will have to loop thru all the elements on the page, and 'look' for them. etc. -- John C.
