Peter Apologies for the rather cryptic '14'. I hope that my second email, "[duxhelp] Roman numerals in British code - correction" explaining that 14 went to 'viv' in DBT, made things clearer. I had assumed that as viv is a female name that was the problem but I had not, at that time, realised the peculiarity that was going on.

Why wouldn't that be surprising? Or am I misunderstanding you? Do you mean it won't handle fourteen-character numerals? - Peter -----Original Message----- From: duxhelp-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:duxhelp-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of David Spybey Sent: Monday, May 22, 2006 3:28 AM To: duxhelp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [duxhelp] Roman numerals in British code I have just been trying out roman numerals in British code. This is much better and will save time so thank you. Not surprisingly it does not cope with 14 and I cannot think that there will be a way round that problem.
