It was sent to me privately (thank you) that my
previous response to Michael Hills with regards to
quotes in the -labeldata- dialog box was inappropriate.
I wish to convey an immediate apology for being flip --
my intention was to be funny in addressing the issue,
not that it is an excuse.

In all seriousness, I believe that the dialog box
is doing as good a job as it can under the circumstances.
We will look at whether we need to take a harder look
at the dialog parser (which is having a problem with
putting in compound double quotes in a "put" statement)
and whether it needs some modification, or if there is
something that can be done with the command.
