I'm not sure I see any "lookup gotcha" here. It sounds like your code just
didn't handle the possibility of "not clist" being hit before running out or
matches.
Don't assume that "I hit EOF" means "I found no records". When the loop
terminates because of _either_ a mismatch or "not clist", then display the
listbox if the count was not zero.
