Oh, that's what they were, John.  Problem is, the menus changed over time and the indexes didn't match the view any longer.   They still worked, they just didn't match the menus in the later versions of Access.

AKA "Magic Numbers", so called because you have to be a member of the priesthood (or develop the 
app) to have a clue.

IIRC that is an index into that menu (5th item down) but I could quite easily be wrong on that one.
