Ah. Was actually looking at the same thing when you sent this :-) Your advice is close but the wrong direction. If I do a factor[]: .01 then I'm golden. Thanks so much! I guess this should have been obvious but it's interesting to me how many other people had the same question in various other forums but never posted a final resolution. Hopefully this will help someone down the road with a little frustration.
