It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 35650
interpreted = N
texte = [date] gives you the date in 11/11/2000 format, the / conflicts withthe directory path. if you want to use it to have a unique name, you canstrip off the /s using [convertchars], alternately you can use the [cart]tag instead of using [date]-[time], is there any other reason why you areusing date-time?========================================================== _O_/\NUP Setty/ | \/ERTical Net / \ http://www.vertical.net _\ \_ 336-218-8562 Ext. 218o o o o==========================================================----- Original Message -----From: Alan
