Okay,

Since I answered myself on this one, I've had problems with this and was
too embarrassed to say so.  It seems that the F1 in the directories
buffer has some quirks.

To refresh (if the thread is lost), from the documentation I noticed
that the following blurb existed and told you guys not to listen to my
newbieness.

   - Pressing F1 in the directories buffer will update it. Pressing F2
     will open the ECB customization group in the edit window ECB
     Sources:

Here is my customization window for the ecb directories.

    Ecb Source Path: Hide
    INS DEL Display type: Value Menu Path with alias:
                Path: c:/java/projects/tutorial/java/
                Alias: java/learn
    INS DEL Display type: Value Menu Path with alias:
                Path: c:/emacs/site-lisp/packages/jde-2.2.9beta9.1/
                Alias: jde
    INS DEL Display type: Value Menu Path with alias:
                Path: c:/java/projects/ejsql/
                Alias: ejsql

The ejsql entry is the one I just entered and I wanted the directories
buffer to update.  When I hit F1 in the directories buffer, I got
prompted with "Add source Path: c:/java/projects/tutorial/java/sql/"

I have usually just C-g'd.  This time I hit yes, and then got prompted
with
"Alias for \"c:/java/projects/tutorial/java/sql/\" (empty = no alias)"

I gave it "sql" as my alias and I then got a duplicate "sql" directory
entry.

Here is my resultant directories buffer:

    java/learn [-]
      pl [+]
      sql
    jde [-]
      doc [+]
      java [+]
      lisp [+]
      local [+]
    ejsql [+]
    sql

I really want

    java/learn [-]
      pl [+]
      sql
    jde [-]
      doc [+]
      java [+]
      lisp [+]
      local [+]
    ejsql [+]

I deleted the entry and all was well, but it seems like something is amiss.
