That is exactly what I did. 
That is how I found that the On Row Entry EEP appears to be getting the same 
value as the On Row Exit EEP.
FWIW, I found a work around, but if this is a confirmed bug, I think it should 
be reported. I can't think of any good reason why both EEPS should return the 
same value.
Mike

Mike,

One of the challenges with the scrolling region is figuring out when variables 
get assigned.--
I would suggest putting a remark at the top of all your eeps like
--this is the ON ROW ENTRY eep
my code here

--this is the ON ROW EXIT eep
my code here

etc.

and then TRACE your code to see what is going on
