Craig,

PRTAB does pay attention on NCOUNT. But it does it together with BDROP, 
EDROP (additionally!!!!)
So if for example you use NCOUNT=2, and BDROP = 4, EDROP=6 then
sublines(cells) 1,2,4,6 should be printed
If NCOUNT=0, then all sublines independent on BDROP, EDROP should be printed
If NCOUNT=1 BDROP=1; EDROP=1 then the line 1 should be printed as you 
got. !!

By other word NCOUNT works with BDROP, EDROP  using condition .AND. as 
it is
told at HELP (addittionally)
