This exactly is not the case. I tip on the arrow and the list, full 
before, is now empty. The same with a default value of a text field.

Scott says to wait for version 1.1beta. I´ll do that and check whether 
both problems disappear.

In the mailinglists archive there´s an entry (oct.2002) which reports 
the same default value problem.

Thanks!
