Dave, Sounds like your working with the insert mode off. Turn the insert mode on by hitting the insert key until the cursor is BIG. Only then will the backspace key carry text left with it. This is also the case with the insertion of carriage returns. You are probably used to the style of cursor being small while in the insert mode. This style has emerged over the last few years to be the prodominate style of insert/overstrike mode. I will give the abilty to swap the appearance of the cursor(opposite IMO) via some variable. Thanx for the note on sorting. I've adding in multi sorting as well as the observance of the UCS systems for a group of text selected. Walt
