Dear Gerad,<br>Many thanks for your reply. I have just checked the input (chat) and output files from the CHECK function, and neither file contains the spaces you're referring to. They only appear after I pasted the text into the email. I have attached the input and output files. Maybe you want to have a look at them? <br>

Dear Linda,<br>
<br>
It looks like you have to delete the space after the letters you mentioned. Did you try that?<br>
Best,<br>

Dear list members,<br>
I am running the CHECK command on a series of chat files. I have corrected all the syntax errors in the files, except for one type of error that I don't know what to do about. Below I have pasted an output from the CHECK command that contains this error type. As you will see, specific letter are considered to be illegal characters. In the example, these are the letters "y" in "boy", "g" in "big", and "d" in "kind". In other chat files, other letters are considered illegal. Does anyone know how I correct these illegal characters? Any suggestions are much appreciated!<br>
Thanks<br>
Linda<br>
