Smylers -- So, what I'm looking for is more explicit phrasing around "immediately above". In the example, the column range for the overflow field is exactly the same as that of the $method field in the prior "picture". But, what does it do if it doesn't match *exactly*? Is it an error, does it have some heuristics to guess? What are the edge cases?
