Thanks. You've cut so much context, left so many dangling prepositions, you've left me confused as to what we're discussing. I suspect you've become confused, too - the original scenario had nothing to do with `text-quoting-style'. Maybe later today, I'll try and reassemble the context and answer you. But it really would be helpful if you would be less obfuscatory. -- Alan Mackenzie (Nuremberg, Germany).
