Ascii code
I need to add an up and down arrow into the Description field, showing the desired direction, does PMF support Ascii code? Google says 38(up arrow) and 40(down arrow), but when I try this it doesn't work, is there any other special characters that should be used to indicate Ascii?

Hi Teresa,

PMF does support Ascii code, but I don't see the up arrow being 38. Looking online this appears to be ↑ for the up arrow and ↓ for the down arrow. I'm not sure exactly where you are trying to accomplish, but you could also use images to display this as well.

Hope this helps,

Looks like it converted the codes I put in the reply into arrows... Smiler

8593 - up arrow
8595 - down arrow

Thanks,
Mike
