I like the idea of the card he carries. I also have a French-Candian associate who works in the standards area for the Quebec government. His last name is "La Bonte'" (the "e" has an acute accent). Because of the problems of getting his surname into the various data bases, he has dropped the space in favor of "LaBonte'". Ed Hart
