My example is text in a window but when using the & character mirc keeps removing it. Please can someone remind me of the character you place in front so mirc does not try to evaluate and so will show the character....

Hit ctrl+k when the cursor is before the stuff you don't want to evaluate. & doesn't evaluate to anything in mIRC though, unless you're using it in some of the socket commands.
