Robin,

Thanks. That partially helped.

But I had 6 items in the group and, after unticking the "Hide items line,"  
four of them now do show up in the root list, but two do not.

Does it matter whether I created the item originally in the root list or in the 
group list?

Any way to change this without totally retyping items?

I had never heard of cut marks, but I'll try to remember to include them. I 
assume they go after my signature?

Where would they go on a reply like this? I also put them under my signature 
here.

Mike
