And of course, I cannot replicate the error that I was getting the other
day.

Hi Doug,

Yes, that should have been:
{=Text1*Text2 \# "£,0.00;-£,0.00;"}
My bad.

Hi Doug,

There you go making it dificult again ...

Only because on the machine on which I was trying it, I was getting a
Syntax error message. But now when I use your construction (minus the
second \#, which causes a Too many picture switches error message) it
works.

I have no idea why what I had tried earlier did not work, but will try it
again when I get to that machine.
