Hmm. Shows what I know. I just checked, and "Check Ties" doesn't, in
fact, get rid of the tie in the situation I described. It does,
however, get rid of the tie if you try to tie a Db to a D nat. within
the same bar.
I also note, for the first time and with some annoyance, that trying

Are you sure the previous measure is rhythmically complete?
Are the ties the same note, or are you trying to tie an enharmonic
equivalent (C# to Db, for instance)?
