I get this error only when I have copied text from word into a web form. It
uploads if I have added a simple typed piece of text but when I add a longer
"story" that I have copied from Word, it fails.
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0005'

Invalid procedure call or argument: 'chr'

/ScriptLibrary/incPureUpload.asp, line 249

I have version 2.05.

Which Word version are you using and does the selection includes any special characters?

Word 2000
I was thinking that that was was it was so I copied it into notepad to try to weed out any unwanted characters. I then copied that into the web form but the same thing happened.

I didn't mean to cross post. I just posted to the wrong forum to begin with.

are you using only simple textareas fields in your form? or some HTML Editor?

Forest will miss chief woodsman: Ken Humlicek was a longtime participant in the state’s traditional fall gun-deer hunting season.
MINONG -- Wednesday was cold with a biting wind but also clear and sunny. The dead, dry leaves had fallen from the trees and bushes so I had a pretty good view in the forest. Yet I still couldn’t find Ken’s old camp. I jumped a doe and a fawn while searching the ground for artifacts, but I never found the spot where I remember Ken standing decades ago, nudging the rusting remains of a barrel stove with his toe and filling us with stories of deer seasons spent living in an old straight-walled army surplus tent.
I can’t ask Ken Humlicek to help me find his old camp anymore. One night last July, at the age of 79, Ken wasn’t feeling well so he went to sleep on the couch rather than bother Celia, his wife of 40 years, if he were to have a restless night. Ken never woke up.
Driving home I stopped in Shell Lake to pay Celia a visit. She’s moved out of the family home and now lives just down the block in a comfortable apartment.
It has hot-water heat, which we agreed is the best for even warmth, but there’s not enough shelf space in the kitchen so it’s hard to use her mixer for baking. We chatted and looked over some old pictures and talked about Ken and deer hunting.
The learning came from watching About half a century ago Ken and several friends started their camp in the pine and hardwood forest of northern Washburn County. The men would put up the tent with the help of whatever children, usually male, were along. The old barrel stove connected to a chimney that went through the tent roof. One of the first orders of business was to shoot a doe for camp meat, fresh venison served fried with a lot of onions.
It was primitive living. The kids slept on feather ticks. Celia told me she only saw the camp once.
“Some of us women went out with a meal and we peeked in the door; it was a mess,” she said. “We left the food and a note and went right home.” We talked about what a good outdoorsman Ken was, and what a safe hunter.
“They’d have their ‘schnapps’ at night, which is what they called whatever they were having, but never while they were hunting,” she said.
That was one lesson I learned from Ken, who I met when I started hunting with Ken’s stepson, Mike Burns, in those same woods. The actual camp had broken up by then, but Ken and some of the camp buddies still hunted together in the area. Moving in single file they’d walk our butts off to some ridge or valley, then would come an exquisite hour or so of trying to be stealthy and watchful in a seemingly still forest with much going on if you take the time to watch.
I learned that from Ken, too.
And after each drive there always came a bull session. I can see Ken standing there, old wool pants and plaid wool shirt, unlined cotton gloves, simple black buckle rubbers pulled over leather boots, tattered short-billed cloth cap tight over his ears, and his eyes wrinkling with a grin as he listened to our outrageous youthful hunting ideas, usually responding: “Ya, that might be.” Now it’s keeping the string unbroken Ken mostly hunted alone in the Sarona area these past few years. “He’d get up at dawn and not leave me a note about where he was going,” Celia said. “That made me mad.” But last year, for whatever reason, Ken revisited the old hunting grounds one last time. He didn’t really go out with our group, though, but rather wandered the ridges and valleys near the old camp.
Last July, when the mourners were bringing Ken to rest at the Sarona Cemetery, a deer bolted across the road directly in front of the procession. When they were coming back after the burial, the identical thing happened.
“It made me feel better,” Celia told me. “I took that as a sign, that everything was really all right.” As I took my leave I gave Celia a hug and promised we’d visit when we came up for this deer season, another season in a long, long line tied directly to Ken. She told me: “You’d better.” And we will.

oh you are using 2.05 - there was a bug in it - try 2.07

That leads into my other email to you. I am trying to get the account info from my friend that ordered for me.
This makes me nervous, because the Editor is breathing down my neck and the guy that ordered originally lives in Colorado now. I have no idea if he is answering his mail at the moment, being a new job and all, he's probably in company orientation.

I did reply to the mail - send me the info I asked for and we will make it all ok
