Mark,

Now it gets wierder.  Created a text field. Rebuilt. Grabbed some text
from the script editor, from the middle of a line so as not to get a CR.
Pasted it into the Ask dialog box, and it pasted it into the filed just 
fine.
Then I grabbed some text from an email window that was open, like I
had done on previous tests, and nothing shows up. I can paste it into
Notepad and it shows up fine. Copy it from there and it shows up fine.
Some how what gets copied from the "Outlook Express" email window
won't show up. Go figgure. Must have some wierd encoding or something.
So now back to my right click pasting...

Thanks,
Bruce

P.S. Tim, you were right. "Its something stupid." Turns out, its me. I 
think.
