Drill-Down in the Criteria Section

I just installed my Dbase 7 (No additional version info in the Help About
Box) and have gone through a few samples in the book to find that I can't
"Drill-Down" expressions.

According to the book, I should:

(1) Hold the ctrl key and click on each row in the SQL Designer criteria
Section that I want to include in the Drill-Down Column (works fine and the
rows turn red, selected).

(2) Right-Click in the Drill-Down Column (menu appears) and select Drill
Down...... Nothing Happens.

Can anyone offer any help as to why this won't work and is this the only way
to enter multiple criteria for a single element (i.e. in Access 97, you can
put ["wc" OR "el" OR "st" OR "nw"] {Just an example, could be any valid
value for the given field} on the same criteria line very easily - It looks
like that in Visual Dbase 7, you must have a line for each option and
"Drill-Down" which of course, I can't seem to do.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  If it matters, I am running a
Pentium 166 (IBM) w/ 32MB RAM, Windows 95 w/ All Service Packs installed.

Thanks,
KC
