Or, better still, a non-existent one. In the Jumbo U2, we use a Speedo character in the unassigned range [910]-[1021], usually either [999] or [1000]. Since these entities don't correspond to actual characters, the chances of their showing up in user input are effectively nil. -- Carl Distefano cld@xxxxxxxx http://users.datarealm.com/xywwweb/
