Just for fun, using EP1 I made a quick demo with nested lists in 
nested lists, i.e.,
List1
     List2
         List3
             List4

and an attribute in each list for display.  No problem.  So it can be 
done, don't know what causes your Factor Error-989.  I would first 
look to make sure that there is no collision of the same attribute 
names from multiple lists, or circular chain of attribute 
references.  Then again, I just purposely introduced a circular 
reference, and that produced the error, "Factor Error:  Circular 
attribute reference: ... references itself in this context. 
...  Error Number:-992", so I guess that's not your problem.
