If you went into the List Management interface, clicked the Templates button, then entered a new name in the box and clicked the Create button, LISTSERV will happily accept whatever name you enter. If you misspell an existing template's name (or a commonly used one that isn't present yet), LISTSERV won't complain because it's assuming you *want* to create a template with that name. For instance, a site may want to have slightly different SIGNUP1 templates with modified wording to suit a particular quarter of the year. So, they create SIGNUP1, SIGNUP2, SIGNUP3, and SIGNUP4. The Owner can then use them as substitutions in the appropriate templates each time a quarter ticks over. Even though 'SIGNUP2' is a variation of the very commonly-used SIGNUP1 template, LISTSERV won't throw an error when the new template's created. >The server is Lsoft's apple which is (I think) running 14.3. > Yes, it is. You were able to fix the problem by renaming the template but you didn't even have to do this in the first place. One of the really good features of 14.3 is that most templates are visible in the drop-down list, even if they haven't been created yet. So, when you first went to create the CONTENT_FILTER template you could have simply chosen it from the drop-down and clicked the 'Edit Form' button. You may first have to choose the appropriate catagory from the 'Select a Catagory:' drop-down and click 'Refresh' before you'll see the template you want. Of course, the 'All templates' catagory shows everything that's available for editing. -- Regards, Michael Shannon Senior Consultant, Asia Pacific Region [log in to unmask] L-Soft international, Inc. http://www.lsoft.com Chazzozz!!
