Yes, but... In this particular set of files, no matter *HOW* narrow I made the windows, I couldn't seem to get Netscape to line-break within the date field. IE line-breaks more stupid^H^H^H^H^H^Hreadily, but you have to make the window unreadably narrow to do so. It thus seemed not important to insert break positions before every "-" in the whole file, or even in the date field(s). For IE we could just set "nowrap" on the cells (or even just the first cell!), instead of inserting ZWSPs all over. I would find that preferrable. Rick
