DiverMidMi
validation is pending with token NZb76Pp9

I just tried this with a test account and it worked fine but whatever,
enter the token above and it will work

It would have been very useful to see the broken XML file. I tried to
reproduce the result and can't.

See other emails. There is no correct answer here. Just various degrees of
incorrect answers.

Simply create "MyAL80" with your "correct values and use that.

Agreed. If we figure out how to do that, we will.

Not likely. The UI is already very busy. Adding more fields won't help.
And interestingly a lot of new fields are asked for by exactly one person.
So thousands of users are then presented with a new field that only one
person wanted. You are, indeed, the first person to ask for a boat field.

We have that. See other emails.
