Thanks, wp. I've used TRichMemos like that before in another project. It would certainly work. All the other text boxes on the form are regular TEdits though. Probably wouldn't involve a lot of recoding for just one TRichMemo. I just have to convince myself it's worth the effort, when all I would hopefully have to do is insert a single character in my current code.
winni - thank you too. The names themselves don't sound too promising, but it's appearance that's important. I'll take a look at them when I get the time - probably tomorrow.
Thanks again to both of you.
