hmmm, and it didn’t even work right. Batting 1.000 today… Can anyone direct me to any of the threads that describe how to get quotes into the subject line? I can’t seem to find them, and I know they’re out there… ---

Try [this one](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=30833). It has some hints in it. Basically, if you use regular quotes, then you can’t preview. But you can use the beginning and ending type quotes alt+0147(“) & alt+0148(”) and they work ok in the subject line. Jim ---
