OK, after more mucking about I realized that if I typed the same
entry, it worked fine. Must be something invisible in the string.
I'm copying it from TextPad. I turned on 'special chars' so it would
show me if something weird was in these strings but there's nothing
visible like that (and I would see it as usually a black square if
there was). (PC/TextPad doesn't have the odd 'hidden chars' thing
that BBEdit allows one to search for.)
I have like a zillion records to manully add to this app that I don't
want to retype. Does anyone know how to search for invisible chars?
That must be it I guess...
