Sorry if this is not helpful to you, Jim. However, I meant the opposite of what you are saying. I am saying that the computer is doing exactly what is coded and, so, the answer lies in tracking the output. I would never think that the impossible is possible or any other such philosophical drivel. Sorry I gave that impression. I am a preeminently practical person. That is what I mean when I say "the computer is always right'. Hopefully my next suggestion makes that clear. I think this is really a simple problem to solve if one merely debugs following the LookupDispatchAction code and determines where the wrong value appears. This is not a rocket science problem. That is my point.
