Well to me there are 3 lines in the LIST (not sure what is the the 
field) and as most of what I've tested in RR seems to work and return 
a line count of 3, so it seems to me that the place to change it is 
in a *field*, not in a "Line List".

What happens if you ask for the number of lines in the *field*, does 
it return 3 or 4?

What happens if you put the (unchanged) field back into a new 
"LineList" and ask for the line count?

Sorry, I didn't think you *really* wanted to know. I live in Lonodn, UK!

And I sincerly hope it isn't your last action!

All the Best and Thanks for your help! Email can be a pain to get 
your point across!
