Ken,

Remind me to put sunglasses on before opening the next email with your name on it!

I tested:


text:
This is a \ really cool solution!

htmlText:
<p>This is a <a name="Howdy!">\</a> really cool solution!</p>



Then, I cut and pasted some text in the field:

text:
\ really cool solution! This is a

htmlText:
<p><a name="Howdy!">\</a> really cool solution! This is a</p>


The tags stayed "glued" around the character!

Even when I copied just the character by itself.

Now, as long as there is not a small limit on the length of "<a name=" tags I'm in business! (Now, to figure out how to set the tags...)


Thanks again Ken!




This could work... Since the character must be visible, the tags must be copied if the user copies and pastes within the field... but it seems like the tags would copy and paste with the text.

I might go the direction of experimenting with the htmlText of the
field, to see if I can put custom tags in without affecting the

I'm not sure what dangers might arise if I mess with the htmlText too
much.

It turns out you can use the "<a name=''></a>" property in HTML which sticks
around and doesn't affect screen display.

Consider:

put "<p>This is a <a name=" & quote & "Howdy!" & quote & ">Test</ a><p>" \
   into temp
set the htmlText of fld 1 to temp

--> You see "This is a Test" in the field

put the htmlText of fld 1

--> You see:

<p>This is <a name="Howdy!">Test</a></p>


Will this do what you're looking for?
