Well, I'll test it out as I'm working -- maybe it isn't a problem. Earlier I
did get an error when I tried to change the property -- I'll have to work
through it all systematically to keep from getting confused. :) I may be
stating things backa*sward at this point...

I've got limit to list: 'Yes'; bound column: 1st; 1st column width: 0".  A97
and A2K.  This has simply never been a problem with thousands of combos I've
created regardless of what the 'Help' says.
