sentences as items

[Toma Tasovac]

Thanks a lot, Chris.  I think that's exactly what I need.

But, pardon my ignorance: how do you insert these special characters?  
Also, if you're using Unicode and you set the useUnicode to true, is 
there a corresponding Unicode character that does the same trick and 
that I could then use in both Mac and Windows versions?

Many thanks, again.

Toma
