There are something lik 900-something in the doc.  I opened the text
file in dbt and they showed up as tabs.  It is a case again of someone
making something "LOOK" good, but stinks for braille.

Hi Ann,

The D+ suggests that this is a DUSCI character, but I've no idea which
one.  It certainly doesn't appear on my list.

I suggest you simply delete it.

George.

Subject: [duxuser] what is this code?

I am working with a document that came to me as a plain text file.  One
large section of about 20 pages appears to have been perhaps scanned in
and looks lind of like columns, but very sloppy ones.  I converted the
document to a ms-word document and opened in Duxbury.  I revealed the
codes and discovered that within this clumsy-looking columnar formatting
is the following code:
[D+000]
I tried replacing the code with a hard space in the prescribed manner,
and I got an error message that indicated the code I entered in the find
what field was not found.  I placed the code in the edit field in two
ways.
First I typed it in after typing control left bracket and then putting
the
D+000 between the brackets.  Next, I tried copying and
pasting the code in.
When I did that, what got pasted looked like asterisks, not the D+000.
Anyone got an idea how I might globally repair this mess?

IN HIS NAME AND FOR HIS GLORY!
