That worked, thanks for the quick lesson.  The next problem is that
now when I hover over the drop, the event fires 10 times (the number
of items in the prospect class total) instead of just once.

Changed the code to:

Droppables.add(divIdName, {accept: 'prospect', onHover: function()
{showConsultantSchedule(keyVar)} });

Thanks!

Chris
