Well this fixed the problem.  But the reason I did not use
this in the first place what that it said the visible attribute
was set to FALSE and I thought that somehow this might make
the screen blink.  But it doesn't.

But I'm still confused, and I guess I really don't need an
answer, but why DOES the list get redrawn, even if visible which
it is, when I ADD characters but not when I delete them?

Seems that if the problem was really to do with the visible
attribute then ADDING as well as DELETING would not be updated.

Thanks
