This is a Paypal code and is quite different. - -Duncan We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give. http://www.leica-gallery.net/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MUGers Are you sure that the four digit number isn't the four digit number on your card? Usually a little above and to the right of the AMEX card number? It sometimes is called a bank code rather than a pin code. I get asked for this number all of the time on online purchases using AMEX. That's the number I use and it always works. I believe I used it when I first signed up with PayPal a couple of years ago.
