Jim, The one circumstance that you don't mentions here is where the page breaks, that is, hard breaks, disappear along with font styles such as Bold and italics when saving in txt format, at least for some of us. And your uploading program does not allow for uploading validated txt files in an rtf format. Will that be fixed? Or should we reject the txt file and submit an rtf file as a replacement? Or will you accept txt files that have a space between pages and a note in the long synopsis that explains where the page number is? Or should only those people who can put hard breaks into txt files validate them (I'm not sure how many such there are)? Or will all txt files be rejected? Are there people who cannot save in rtf format? Cindy __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The all-new My Yahoo! - Get yours free! http://my.yahoo.com
