Not sure if I'm understanding you correctly, but this is what I use when I need to find an apostrophe or use one in my program. There's also a hex code you can use which I don't recall off-hand but I'm sure before I even hit send someone else on the list will have already replied with it. =)

D apostrophe...
D C ''''

I am using xlate to strip out unwanted characters from our barcode
file......and replacing it with a blank.

All things considered it is working well....except for the apostrophe.

Any idea how to include that in the list without causing the compiler to
balk at me?

Here is the D spec

0003.01 D@INV c CONST('!@#-c-&\}|NOT{?><.`~||(),*$+-%
0003.02 D ;:"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ.')
Since the ' is the delimiter for a character field....is there anyway for
me to test for it?
