Hi Mike,

    MPEX has a feature called HOOKing ... where you can HOOK another
program, i.e. SUPRTOOL.PUB.ROBELLE possibly? - which then enables you to
utilize MPEX functionality within that program.

    I do not know for sure that this would work, perhaps someone on the list
may have already set this up?

    However, MPEX does have the ability to specify CASELESS strings so this
may be worth investigating.

Robert.
