Thanks Rob/Russ....starting to think I will either do as you both suggested and replace # with ## in the AIR app or do as I also mentioned and not allow the few characters I'd have issues with (most users don't need ~,|,^, or # in comments....# being the most likely, but they can use "No." or "Num" or "Number" or "pounds" or "lbs" as acceptable replacements).
Sometimes you just have to back away one step from perfect and become practical ;-) Cheers *Bryan Stevenson*B.Comm.
