OH YES! watch your numbers, too... i switched my extractword to being zero 
based and restored it to using the ';' (not ':' colon as you posted) for space 
delimited work... the above ANSI field is 5 (zero based) or 6 (one based)... i 
tripped on it at first due to the differences since my first post so i wrote a 
quick test which showed me it was not grabbing the proper field...
