Good point; ++. Another arguement for regex and length!> I failed to consider that OP's substr($account_1, 4, 0) hard codes the insert point; in fact, offhand, I don't see a direct way (other than a regex to find the last, initial letter (.oO ... there might be some non-initial letters? pos, and length) to fix that in my code. Update: That is, I didn't see it until your Re: Counting to add space to a string. Elegant and concise: ++ again!	[reply]
