Solid line = quotation marks?
Hi All:
Am working on another set. Yeah :o) Some of the entries have a solid line (i.e., ------- ) instead of the typical quotation marks. The quotation marks which would tell me to enter the information I previously entered. The solid line would tell me there is no response. Please advise. I haven't submitted this particular project, and am still entering info. It's not too late ;o)
Thanks for the assistance.

Would be happy to help you, if you share the batch code with us. I really cannot say what the solid lines mean without seeing them.
This is how you find the Shared batch code:
"When you need help with a batch, you can share it with another indexer. This person can then see details of the batch and give you the help you need, but any information the helper enters into the data entry area will not be saved.
Steps
- Just above the toolbar, click Help.
- On the drop-down menu, click Share Batch.
- The Share Batch window opens, giving you two options:
- Copy the batch link, and paste it in an email to the helper or post it on the Share Batch, Etc. page on Facebook. The helper can click the link and go directly to the batch.
- Share the batch code so the helper can enter it in the web indexing tool and open the batch.
- A second way to find the batch code is by clicking Batch, then About Batch. The Batch ID is the same as the code.

That usually means ditto also. Here's from Indexing Help: If a record has a ditto mark or other sign of repetition, type the corresponding information from the previous record or field. Do not index the word "ditto" or the ditto mark itself. Other signs of repetition may include the abbreviation "Do" or a vertical or horizontal line.
It should also say this in the General Indexing Guidelines section of your Project Instructions.
But FGGM is right. For your particular batch it would be helpful to see exactly what's there.
