Then release the ON key. You will see (I hope) that the comma has been replaced by a period. You can repeat the procedure if you ever want the comma back, etc.

Thanks guys! Worked like a charm! ntxt Message #4 Posted by alex on 1 Nov 2002, 1:40 p.m., in response to message #3 by Tom Sherman (Maine)

"mi mujer" was pissed.
