Hello Jan,

thank you for the quick response;

 From the documentation RunRev 2.1.2, Transcript Language dictionary:

"The prompt can be either formatted text (in the htmlText property’s 
format) or plain text. If the prompt contains <p> or a start/end tag 
pair, the answer command assumes the text is in the same format as the 
htmlText property. Otherwise, the answer command assumes the text is 
plain text."

So it should be corrected.

Happy about the solution

Richard.
