Just to check, in Preferences // Program Options // Lists, check the option "Show vertical lines" and "Show Horizontal lines". I find it easier to see what is going on in the boxes with the lines turned on. Now in the Type area, do you have a vertical line between the Type heading and the Value heading? (Do you even see a Value heading?) If you don't see a Value heading, then you either have the width of the entire Type box in your layout too narrow, or you have expanded the width of the Type column to the width of the Type box by dragging the divider line between the two columns too far to the right. In either case there is no room to show the Values column of the fields. Could this be the issue? Michael

    3. Bud - See the image here: http://screencast.com/t/0SoC24jq Note the vertical line to which the red arrow is pointing. If you see that same vertical line, drag it to the left to expose the values. Virginia On Wed, Oct 21, 2015 at 4:32 PM, Michael J. Hannah via <tmg@rootsweb.com> wrote: > Bud replied: >> I tried this.

    3. You are pointing to exactly the right place, Virginia.  Only problem is I have no short vertical line there.  V.ery odd From: Virginia Blakelock via <tmg@rootsweb.com> To: Michael J.

    3. This seems to be the issue.  I have no "value" heading or a vertical line there.  I cannot get it to drag back.  It is at the right edge of the "details" box and doesn't activate so I can drag it.  It is a conundrum.  I have no idea how long it has been this way.
