Mark,
I don't understand what you mean about his not supplying it in the short
form of the edit... It is not required there. The whole edit works
properly... what is unbalanced? It sounds like your saying you would want
the fields to carry:

   (201) 337-8009
         427 9009

That would be very wierd and unconventional.

John




Or what? Why supply
