Ah! I see it, what you mean!

I've change the contents of the fields, who has "(", ")" and "&" so,
that I don't need such characters and I get the whole PDF Pages filled
with items right. It was easier than creating a new field like "squash"
at the moment, because I've no times to do that.

I hope Mike can find a solution to provide any searching for an
itemfields (with "(",")","&", etc.) by an external script outside of IC.

cfm and Racke,

thank you a lot for your times.
