That doesn't seem to work anymore. How can I correct them to reduce our drop-down list of insurance companies? thx :-)

Our practice is in PA but we have many patients listed as living in '[A' due to secretarial errors. Any help on eliminating the '[A' option wold be tremendous - as well as the incorrect insurance companies!

I was a happy camper until I closed the list and went back to see if it had really been deleted. It was standing there sticking its tongue out at me and saying nanee nanee boo-boo! :-(
