Hi Tom,
Embarrassingly, I can't. I've been monkeying with the database so much
that I can't seem to get it back to the state where I reproduce the
behavior I want. A database drop and reload may be the only way, but
since that is a time consuming thing to do, I won't be able to do it
until this evening.
Thanks,
Scott
