Hi Rob...

 DM> colors/attributes?

Yeah, sorry for delay - my work has kept me busy the last week or so, and this is the first time I've had chance to come back and revisit!

Not only did I change the menomic as suggested, I searched the "text.dat" file for all instances of "Message Groups" of which there was two. I then copied the text lines as you showed in last message into a new text.ini file, and replaced any occurrence of "\1g" with "\1m". Saved the file, and logged on to the BBS and no change. I even tried "systemctl restart sbbs" to see if I needed to flush the BBS in some way, and it made no difference. So I am at a loss as to why these codes are not being picked up. It's very strange.

All the best
Dave
