USA 07901 Lines: 12 I have an ASCII file that contains a few control characters. I can read it into WP5.0 as ASCII text, but how do I search for these characters? In vi I can use a v or a backslash to quote a character. What is the equivalent in WP? Please mail your responses as I don't get this feed reliably. I will post a summary to the net. -- Sam Saal ..!attunix!saal Vayiphtach HaShem et Peah HaAtone
