Shape data: Cannot add elements to a fixed list

Question

I see nothing wrong with what I'm doing in a Define Shape Data dialog:

  Label: Subclass

  Type: Fixed List

  Language: English (U.S.)

  Format: [blank]

  Value: A;B  (I had a more complex list, then tried a simple A;B)

  Prompt: Blank

yet I get an error "Cannot add elements to a fixed list." What's wrong?

I was able to fix it using Visio 2010 with no problem -- in fact now I can even modify the list in 2007 -- but I am one of only a few in the office with 2010 and I wanted to do everything I could in 2007.
