I just copy and paste your name whenever I need it. Same with Karl (see, nothing to copy from, so the R is not reversed). Just what is the HTML sequence or key stroke for ö? regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Brian Welsch wrote: "blah blah blah, maybe a potato?" while translating my Afrikaans.

Since the dots are called "umlauts" in fancy pancy nomenclature, ö becomes ö in HTML lingo. A capital Ö is Ö. Similarly ä is ä. It seems that someone who worked with SGML/HTML had their head screwed on right (good entity names). :) -- Must I be the meat in an imbecill sandwich?

Good night US Marine. It's very very late here in Arizona and it's time I hit the sack. I'll be awake about 11 AM Arizona time, 1 PM New York time and 5 AM Australian East Coast time. Please don't disappoint me. I want to find a thread on the Soapbox pointing to three websites. The first website should say that I'm gay. The second that I beat my wife. And the third that I'm a shameless illegal immigrant who ought to be deported instantly. Were you to disappoint me I'd be crushed and humiliated here on CodeProject. So don't let me down ok, lover :) Rob Manderson http://www.mindprobes.net "I killed him dead cuz he was stepping on my turf, cutting me out of my bling the same way my ho cuts cookies, officer" "Alright then, move along" - Ian Darling, The Lounge, Oct 10 2003

Because used notes have been in circulation and is then not likely tracable. Think about it. Blackmailer asks for a large amount of money. They want it fast, in small notes. Would you be able to catalog each note during the stipulated time frame? Let's say a million notes? If you get a fresh pack of notes straight out of the factory, they'll be ordered as a freshly sorted array. :) -- Must I be the meat in an imbecill sandwich?
I read somewhere that each branch of the Bank of Scotland carries a sort of "surrender" pack of money if they ever get raided. The idea is that it looks like it comes directly out of the normal cash drawer but it has a hidden payload. A bag of reddish-purple dye explodes when it is removed from the branch. Thus rendering the cash useless. --Colin Mackay--

Fly me to the UK, let me have a month there and buy me some wine and I'm your witness :) Rob Manderson http://www.mindprobes.net "I killed him dead cuz he was stepping on my turf, cutting me out of my bling the same way my ho cuts cookies, officer" "Alright then, move along" - Ian Darling, The Lounge, Oct 10 2003

When I was at University I worked as a cashier at Safeway - One guy came in and tried to pay with a forged Bank of Scotland £20 note. It was so obvious is was made on an inkjet printer. Even the colour was streaked like the cartridge was beginning to run out of ink. --Colin Mackay--

When the police raided MJ's house this morning, they found, class A drugs in the kitchen, class B drugs in the front room and class C2 in the bedroom. :laugh: Roger Allen - Sonork 100.10016 If your dead and reading this, then you have no life!

I'd imagine, since the term originated in a pre DNA testing world, that it reflected a pious hope that fingerprints couldn't be authorative if lifted from a 'used' note. I imagine the same concern applies in the modern world.

I just keep a table of numeric codes near my desk. Much easier than trying to remember cryptic codes.:) "Your village called -
