It seems to be the GetProperty command.  Using the exact same code only 
removing the GetProperty and going back to the old style of  "Setting a 
variable equal to the column" in the expression builder,  it works like it 
always has.   I was looking at using the more current GetProperty but it 
evidently is not meant for use in an on row entry eep.
