The mu was readable, but for some reason I hesitate to bet on relying on it. When both milli and micro abbreviate to the same letter m (and mega already abbreviates to M), you must invent something. No technician would like to make a guess for mseconds or mmeters between their milli and micro versions.

Many thanks. Much appreciated. I agree it can be somewhat troublesome to send Greek and Russian (or Japanese) characters via e-mail or webpage. Either you use the wrong font / codepage or it is enforced up you... groan... I will try to post this greek letter via IB-MAIN web-page below this line and see what happens (and send a copy to my e-mail address: μs I just wonder why only microsecond has this greek letter, but nano, pico, femto, etc. don't have greek letters. I think I will not spend one more microsecond of my time on this thread... ;-) Thanks Kees for your kind answer! Much appreciated.
