Currently the _expression_ is so: '^[a-zA-Z0-9-_. ]+$'   '^[a-zA-Z0-9-_.\]\[ ]+$' Wags ;)   Meaning, a user can enter a-z or A-Z or 0-9, dashes, underbars or periods and space.   I have a problem now, because they actually are going to allow users to enter a ‘[‘ or a ‘]’ This is stumping me. How can I incorporate the possibility of having a [ or ] in the user input?     Thanks, Scott     ******************************************************* This message contains information that is confidential and proprietary to FedEx Freight or its affiliates.
