Hi, Mike:

I do have the Vanagon List as a label, as I do the Type 2 list.  I'm also on
a John Deere tractor list and have that labeled as well.  What I'm looking
for is how enable the new feature that lets you create a custom color for a
label.  That way, my Vanagon stuff would be, say, blue and my Type 2 stuff
is green and so on...

See what I'm saying?  Am I misinterpreting the data?
