I find the Text Entry object lacking in some printable symbols that may be used for Email addresses. Both the Do-more/BRX/etc and the Productivity allow Strings to be used for a destination Email Addresses. It should be easy to change these through a C-More such as when a Plant Manager, Etc., changes but some symbols are missing. From Wikipedia: The local-part of the email address may use any of these ASCII characters: uppercase and lowercase Latin letters A to Z and a to z; digits 0 to 9; printable characters !#$% & '*+-/=?^_`{|}~; dot ., provided that it is not the first or last character unless quoted, and provided also that it does not appear consecutively unless quoted (e.g. John..Doe@example.com is not allowed but "John..Doe "@example.com is allowed); The is more, but I think this gives the minimum. Currently we can only enter dot, underline, and dash. Adding all the legal symbols would be helpful
