I think you are doing it the hard way. The wall covering is a good tool to use when you don't want to paint the whole wall from top to bottom. Please go back and read my previous post.

Dermot,
This isn't quite right.
If the wall material is Drywall and you simply change it to "Color Red" then you lose the "Drywall" definition and the "Materials List" will be incorrect. For everything to be right in this case you actually need another layer in the wall definition - ie: "Paint" - or "WallPaper" or .....
IAE, you need to keep the Drywall.
As far as the Wall Covering Tab is concerned - it only does the surface opposite the main layer - which is OK for Exterior Walls but is inadequate for interior walls.
