Hi Nadya,

Yes, this IS awkward! I'm having a hard time w/it, but I'll keep plugging away...if you have any further ideas about it, please let me know.

I've tried saving printable characters in a string, keeping track of the length, but, then, of course, you have to handle the effects of backSpace, Delete, right and left arrow movements, etc. messy! I keep thinking "There's GOT to be an easier way to do this!"

Thanks for your help and interest.
