Thanks Bill.  Tried that, it barked about the syntax:

 FieldID Not Found: 'Collection!' returned 0
        Suggestion:  Check spelling of the field or edit files under
                     \usr\ov\fields to define a new field.  Then run
                     ovw_fields to load the new field in the database.$


I've also tried the "^"...no luck.  Any ideas?

Thanks

Frank
