That's quite similar to what I did already (setting sensitivity to 0 for
lists containing only an empty string)
... I just felt it would be a nice (and logical) feature for
a list widget to be "emptiable" ;-) ... AND zero length arrays would come
in handy for a couple
of other problems as well (does anyone at RSI read this newsgroup?),

however, thanks a lot,
Robert.
