Loose the ! and the quotes. The command will not accept string

(command "_chprop" txt "" "_la" "34_P-A-GRID-PR" "")

Do you two communicate telepathically?

@pbejse:  I don't know how to pronounce your name, but all I can think about is a Petit Basset Griffon Vendéen (PBGV).

I think one went BOS at Westminster within recent years.

 No, not even close, but the way I style my hair has an incredible likeness to the breed. ( Yes John, I look up PBGV on the net )

"<---- Isntalled!" makes me think you need a spell chekcer.

Aha!  I'll bet you know the "zacklies" joke.

Sorry, I would have to post it privately if you don't.

I would hate to loose my membership here.
