I know better than to try an program my 536 when I'm tired, but I'm going on a trip in the morning and am trying to get this done tonight. I'm sure the answer is as plain as the nose on my face, but I can't can't seem to find it, so I hope someone here can point me in the right direction.

When I set up favorites lists, I like to include a number in the list title that corresponds to the quick key number I have assigned to that list. Kind of puts me in my of the days when scanners used banks instead of lists. Yeah, I'm kind of old school. Anyway, I need to change the number in the name of the list from 16 to 17, but no matter what I do, I can't seem to get it to work. Here's a pic of what I've got in Sentinel....



I've got the system name changed, but I'm "this close" to banging my head on the desk because I can't get it figured out for the list name. I know it's going to be something so simple it will be a "D'oh!!" moment when I see the answer.

Thanks in advance for any help provided.

Highlight your favorite name you would like to change, then point and click on the a{e icon located directly below the 'save' disk icon.

I'm not aure I inderstand but if you want to edit the 16 to 17 then you need that on the right side,
try to click up one level on Favorite Lists and they should be displayed on the right, then double click in the cell on the right and edit, hope this is what you need,
good luck
