So I'm doing it correctly then.

This explains why when I tried to change the commas to "p" and "w" per MrGibbage's suggestion they appear as "7" and "9" respectively. I like this feature.

So I guess I'll just have to wait for a software update to fix the "#" problem. Is there a separate email or forum area for reporting bugs?
