Re[2]: Editing header process
This could be associated with what I described in mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] When you once give a bad import command to TB, it has to be closed before clearing the stack of commands and being able to import commands again. OK _ finally sorted... A) Re-starting TB everytime the filter is changed - necessary B) Double quote marks round a USer with a space in it - BUT this cannot be pasted in - if double quotes are pasted in to the filters then everything after the first quote is dropped because TB automatically adds a double quote round the entire command string so: TB starts by adding a double quote, pasting gets as far as the first quote actually in the pasted line and drops the rest. So you have to paste it without double quotes, then Edit the Action in TB filter edit window and put the double quotes back in. Single quotes do not work either in pasting or in the edited command line. Now... all I want is for the system to stop and ask me where I want the imported file to be sent? Any chance a variable and a question box be displayed? There's a challenge for the w'end.
