SUCCESS! After an all-night crash course in subtle string syntax, I was finally
able to write something that worked!

For   F1+A, F2+A,   substitute

"<",vstr(3,F1+A,",",0,0),"> ", "<",vstr(3,F2+A,",",0,0),"> ",

just as written. Works beautifully, but that may not be the end of the high-res
#write problem, as I discovered while working this out.

But time to sleep...more later....
