Bob, If you see the underscores buried in the URL, all you really need is the stuff between them to get to the URL. Since it happened to split right before the second underscore, it worked for you. Just to try it, I dumped the whole link into notepad and pulled out just the subset between the underscores, plopped that into a browser and went to CW's article.

In my email client that URL is split into two lines, and only the first line was turned into a link. I clicked on it anyway, rather idly, expecting it to tell me the link wasn't found (because the address is incomplete); no problem, I would just reconstruct the URL and pasted it into the address box. But no, the first part of the address was perfectly adequate to find the page! Is that the way the whole internet behaves, or is it peculiar to the computerworld.com domain? --- Bob Bridges, robhbrid...@gmail.com, cell 336 382-7313 /* Democracy is where you can say what you think even if you don't think. */ -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> On Behalf Of Lionel B.
