It isn't a big deal, but the other software sends the focus to the last
case in the data set, rather than ten cases past that. In fact, the other
software will not allow the focus to extend beyond the last case in the data.

Displaying ten rows beyond the last case looks good. I would not change that.

My thought was that if it required only a simple fix, it would be worth the 
effort,
but if it takes a lot of code, it's better to live with it for now.
