Maybe this can work... Actually, I was incorrect. It doesn't strip the slashes. But that's not the issue. The problem is that if you enter digits into a string property they don't get entered into a globbing vocabulary. They must have either a character appended or prepended to the string of digits to prevent them from being stripped. -- Tim Cook, President -- Free Practice Management,Inc. | http://www.FreePM.com Office: (901) 884-4126 "Nearly everyone will lie to you given the right circumstances." - Bill Clinton _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
