hi,<br><br>i'm using <br><br>[symbol2list -] <br>| <br>| [symbol( <br>| |<br>|<br>[list2symbol]<br><br>on something like 00-ab-87-02.<br>the result becomes 0ab872.<br>so, i'm losing the leading zero's.<br>
<br>in other words the symbol '00' is handled like a number,<br>probably any symbol that looks like a number is immediately treated like that.<br>which, in the case above is unexpected (at least for me).<br><br>would it then be necessary, working with texts, always to check if one's not accidentally losing zero's?<br>
