I'll take care of these issues. I put 2 in one row because there is a limit
as to how many rows can be in the general tab and we've hit that limit :-/
I'm not sure how that is being handled or if we want to increase the # but
if I increase the row by one it shoots out an error for me. Let me know how
to proceed, I'll deal with the other two issues as soon as possible. Thanks
for the comments
