When I use paste("string1","string2","string3"), the series

Hi! I am in a bit of trouble, I have moved a samba installation from one virtual host to another keeping the configuration files and filesystems.

Hello folks- In one particular app, it would be useful for the customers to be able to specify the significance (and presence) of fields. For example, consider a CONTACTs database.
