Ok. I'm not sure this is common enough to to have a field for it by default, maybe it would be better solved by adding a custom field when it's needed or something. Haven't decided yet, though, so I'll consider it - but it seems like it's needed only on a handful of web-sites. > Then there are things I've wanted to do once or twice.

Ho hum, not so sure about this. I've had other requests for this as well, but I don't really see why this should be stored in Revelation. The data isn't exactly secret (it's public data in Norway, at least), and I'm sure you'll get a nice overview of your accounts in your banks web-interface anyways? -- Erik Grinaker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://erikg.codepoet.no/ "We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us happy is something to be enthusiastic about." -- Albert Einstein
