For instance, you can see (even in the old records) Ma where the 'a' is superscripted. This is an abbreviation of the name, Maria. In the case of Profa, the abbreviation would be to indicate that the PhD graduate is a female. This is found in salutations of more formal correspondence, again as I understand it. Learning is happening. Pointing out the degree symbol is also handy for different reasons. Thanks again. -- Regards, Maggie ____________ “When you least expect it, someone may actually listen to what you have to say.” -Maggie Kuhn ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Running Windows 7, and emailing with The Bat! 7.0.0.56 Not sure if this has been mentioned. On my version of TB (8.7) when using the mail message window, under View you can enable HTML toolbars then any character can be sub/super scripted.
