I (along with others, I am sure) have noticed inconsistencies with variations listed in sets. I would like to know the preferred way to list them. Example 1: #496 Joe Smith ERR, #496a Joe Smith COR. Example 2: #496a Joe Smith ERR, #496b Joe Smith COR.

Also, there are 2 cards listed in the 1990 Pro Set Football checklist, which show variations, but the cards do not come up on the "Errors/Variations" checklist. #698a & b, #718a & b.

I am hoping I can get time to reach the level it takes to make these corrections, rather than just point them out to others.

Love this site, the people are great! 

Example #2 is correct. Variations should always have an "a" and "b" (sometimes more, "c" "d", etc).  I have noticed some checklists with the incorrect Example #1.  As far as the 1990 Pro Set FB, the "ERR" and "COR" was not in the Note field, only in the Note2 field. After I added them to the Note field they showed up in Error/Variations. So, apparently the site's programming requires the ERR and COR in the Note field.

I recently received Level 7 permissions and will be able to correct the Number fields.

When I make up my database checklist (spredsheets) for my binders I make up all base cards, then I will add variations in another section (cell) next to the base cards this way I don't get overwhlemed meaning, I can focus on base then variation without going back and fourth. Then I will make up another section (cell) for all the insert cards.
