Thanks again Anthony,

Your help has been clear and concise.  I have what I need now.

About the error thing.  Just to be clear where I am working from.  I
am using the online editor at:
http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/default/edit/XxxxxxXxxx/models/db_wizard.py

And for a test I just removed one of the commas at the end of a line
and tried to save the file, which produced this error in an orange pop
up message:

failed to compile file because:
SyntaxError at line 50 at char 8
invalid syntax (C:/web2py/applications/XxxxxxXxxx/models/db_wizard.py,
line 50)

So I guess it is saving the file, but failing to compile.  Would that
be a better way to state what is happening?

Thanks again.
