Anne,
        I've been discussing this with the DFSORT L2 rep that's working on
your problem.  I don't believe CFW is related to this.  I think I have an
idea of what's going on, but I'd rather work the problem through our
support process and then once we are sure of the cause, I can post an
answer for the benefit of those on the forum.
