Dar,

The program will allow for just one phone number (for the "returninfield"
message) of seven digits to generate all possible permutations. The logic of
how to write that permutation code is what I don't grasp.

I'm simply taking one phone number and sending back all the alphabetic
(including 0 and 1 numeral) combinations that may or may not make words.

The results will be displayed in a possibly huge field for the user to
scroll to see if something makes "word-sense", so to speak.
