<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Strange - I can't repro this on
my outlook box (my Vista 64 box doesn't have Outlook). It looks like a ^M
character ended up in the file in place or the line ending we expect. Do you
have any idea what could cause this? Could you please open the generated file
in a text editor and see if it is only the one line with the strange line endings,
or is there something else causing the error?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
