Thanks, Lance, I think this is a good solution. Still, I don't
understand the logic behind where -mlabposition- places the string.
Does it look at the beginning, the middle, or the end of the string?
Why do -mlabposition(12)- and -mlabposition(1)- yield such different
results? I wonder.
Best, Augusto
