Thank you, Herman. I’m going to have to study this to see if I can use it. I am
not converting a "simple table field” but rather a simple field with tabStops
(not sure if that makes a difference?). Also, I’m working with rtfText instead
of HTMLText. (Again, not sure if that makes a difference or even what the
trades are of each)
Thank you very much for taking so much time to help me.
