Thanks for the link. The problem with my first try (almost a year ago now!) is that $vbulletin isn't available in postbit so it has to be $bbuserinfo. I realized that later, so I'm not sure why the second try didn't work. Anyway, this time I decided to test it.

Yep, i had to learn that lesson too........i went over and over, reading and re-reading and was adamant i'd done it right but couldn't get it to work, stumbled across that site, tried the one you have above and bingo!

Served me right back then for being obstinate :)

Got it. I had them set as "Private" fields in Wired1's Extra Profile Fields. Taking off the 'private' flag did the trick. Now... why private would hide it from the user themselves... lol

Thanks so much.
