You've lost me there, Stephen. I understand why hk568512 should be treated as the same as HK568512 on a platform where usernames are not case sensitive. But I don't understand why should Analog decide that when I say to treat HK568512 as "Adam Brown", Analog decided to treat it as "adam brown"? Especially if Usernames are case sensitive, and "Adam Brown" and "adam brown" are not the same thing. Does FILEALIAS do this too? (Decide that I really meant index.html if I specify Index.html as the alias for a file?) > Maybe the original > questioner would be better with USERREPALIAS. I'm the original questioner, and yes, USERREPALIAS does indeed give me the case sensitive User Report. (Another "doh" moment on my part - I forgot about the output aliases). But then I'm caught by the sorting bug, because I need to use USERSORTBY ALPHABETICAL occasionally to get a list of logonIDs that I don't have aliases for (they get grouped together when I sort alphabetically). On the positive side, I did learn how to do a global search and replace in vi! :.,$s/USERALIAS/USERREPALIAS/g Aengus +------------------------------------------------------------------------ | This is the analog-help mailing list.
