Jim,
Thanks for the script snippet. It didn't quite work as shown, but
it did get me to think about the problem more carefully. I came up
with this:
put "-Jan-,-Feb-,-Mar-,-Apr-,-May-,-Jun-,-Jul-,-Aug-,-Sep-,-Oct-,-
Nov-,-Dec-" into mthStrings
Bryan,
Is it possible that the original text string is not using hyphens
consistently? Could there perhaps be en-dash and/or em-dash
characters there, which look just like hyphens in monospaced fonts.
If the original text was created in MS Word, for example, it often
auto-substitutes en- or em-dashes for hyphens.
Just a thought.
