PayPal's use of "Item Number"

PAYPAL EXPRESS CHECKOUT question regarding "Item Number"

DETAILS:
My client uses a "CATALOG NUMBER" instead of a reference number to track his items. He wanted the CATALOG NUMBER to appear on the Cart page.

I thought I was really clever - The admin catalog page has a line item identified as Product Number. I did a massive change of all references from 'Product Number' to 'Catalog Number' And, it works just fine - except PayPal calls it an "Item Number" on the PayPal pay page. Guess I am NOT so clever after all (smile).

QUESTION:
Is there somewhere I can change PayPal's "Item Number" to "Catalog Number"?

Thank you for reading my Post,

Re: PayPal's use of "Item Number"

Are you asking if it's possible to tell PayPal to change THEIR wording from saying "Item" to saying "Catalog"?
If so, I doubt it very much. You'd have to ask them directly: https://www.paypal.com/mts

Dr. Byte,

Thank you once again - yes, that is my question precisely. I will pursue the link you suggested.
