1. oops, wrong key
to used to using tab in code
sequence data = "#test"
sequence testchar = "#"
if equal(data[1], testchar)
do this
else
do that
endif
problem is equal never comes out true, what am I doing wrong ?
also, does anyone have an ansi to rtf conversion routine in eu?
thanks all
Dave

The problem is that the value of data[1] is not a sequence, it is an atom.
Another words, '#' is not equal "#".
I think it will work if you change one line to:
sequence testchar =3D '#'
And if you do that, you won't need to use the equal() function, you can=
just use:
if data[1] =3D testchar then
