texte = List members,Does anyone have a clue as to why extra quotation marks sometimes appear in my databases?Sometimes, if a field has quotation marks in it, all of the quotation marks become double quotation marks and the entire field gets wrapped in a set of single quotation marks.This has happened to me under the following two circumstances in the past day relating to 2 different sites,1) When saving and then reopenning a tab-delimited file in MS Excel for Win 98. 2) When submitting modifications to a database via a WebDna-based template. All ideas/suggestions welcome.Steve----------------------------------------------------------------------- Steve Rosenbaum Pop Art L.L.C. http://pop-art.com steve@pop-art.com Networks / Databases / Multimedia7000 SW Hampton St., Suite 124, tel: (503) 968.5957 Tigard, OR 97223-8361 fax: (503) 620.8487
