I'm glad it worked out, but did you even read the coding cheat sheet thread? http://www.2addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=997749

edit: beaten to the punch by the guy I was quoting, dangit.
Yes, I read the cheat sheet...about a year ago.....and all I could remember was that the "Code default values" had special significance. The dumbass I am, in the heat of the moment I thought this must be the Fix everything magically button.
I drove it about 40 miles this morning and so far everything seems OK.
