    you can change the CTRL+A character to \1 in all your .src files
    i use xchange from ruth's utilities for this [google it]
    when messing with a file that displays, convert it to ansi first with
    the msg2ans
    utility or whatever they are calling it now. asc2ans maybe.
    then change it back [if you wish. i wouldnt]
    Thanks, and I apologize for my noobishness. I think I accidentally deleted of Digital Man's posts and I'm not sure if that affects DOVE-Net entirely just my BBS locally. I'll be more careful when scrolling through messages now on.
    when you delete a msg on your bbs, it is just removed from your bbs.
    yeah, when I used asc2ans it came out like those screenshots I linked to. I thought I still had to convert them back to asc, but I guess not. I kinda hope not.

    I don't really understand what \1 means. is it just a placeholder? how do I change it back to a ctrl code afterward?

    thanks for your help.
