   Thanks for reporting that.  Even though it does not matter in my case (due to   
   the arealist being in lowercase), I was still curious to know what the above   
   setting was intended to accomplish.   
      
   Sounds like a good entry/update for the userguide!  ;)   
      
   I would suggest two sections of help in the guide:   
      
   [1] "If your areafix list is in UPPERCASE:"   
      
   [2] "If your areafix list is in lowercase: then none of this matters and you   
   are out of luck!" :)
