Hi Acar,
This may be true for Orders but it is not true for the standard texts I am using in my application.
That is why I changed to reading the text directly.
The problem of formatting not being applied to a variable in a loop is still a problem.
I will try your suggestion to use B1 although since I have a smartstyle myself, B1 may not apply.
Thanks for your input in any case!
All the best,
Olivier
