Thanks John,
 
I just wanted to make sure there wasn't anything that I was doing wrong. 
 
Regards,

Lisa,
Yes I have and it is "as designed". Doubling the & escapes it from its normal role a a concatenation operator.
If your menu uses the same field for Label and Value you will see B&S in the menu but B&&S will be pasted to the field.
You can't do much about it because the field is working double-duty.

I have a search menu that calls the same form that the Menu is actually on (does that make sense?)

When I type something like B&S into my field, hit save, then check the Menu, it comes up as "BS"

When I type something like B&&S into my field, hit save, then check the Menu, it comes up as "B&S"

Has anyone seen this before?
