Thanks for the idea, Virginia. I tried giving it a new name, saving it, closing & opening TMG9. Unfortunately the results are the same.

Bobbie - Go to the last column on the right side of the Details window. Click on the left vertical line at the top of that column and drag the column to the left a little and make sure there is a vertical line on the right side of that column with some space between the right vertical column line and the side of the Details window. There was a message in the archives with a similar error message and that corrected it Virginia On Sun, Oct 18, 2015 at 9:05 PM, Bobbie Hall <bobbie.hall@gmail.com> wrote: > Thanks for the idea, Virginia.

I've just tried that, too, Virginia. Didn't work. I tried several different columns, a single column, etc. It still reverts back to it's old arrangement. Do you remember what you searched on in the archives? I'll go look some more.
