"Validate= Store Only" is the old nomenclature for "Validate= No". I should have mentioned that. :) If you put a list on 1.8a with "Validate= Store Only" or "Validate= All Commands", it complains to you--but only if you have <changed> the Validate= setting. So old lists coded Validate= Store Only or Validate= All Commands will continue to work (at least until Eric decides to phase out the old values). HTH, Nathan
