I ran your code and it works as I'd expect with
either pmr or dmr. The pmr does not enable you
to actually change Field values - it just triggers
a Data change to trigger any Cells - hence its
name 'Pick'. With dmr I can change Field values,
so if that's what you want use dmr. If you only
want to pick then use pmr.

Good luck,
Bill
