Wouldn't work.  In fact, this is a problem with the tables rather than the 
expansion table idea.  You can only have one call prefix on an PIECE.  I 
presume that the example you cited is why you want it.  We decided in table 
talk that theses that were on microfiche (as all are eventually) would have 
the MCRFORMS collection and THESIS call prefix.  We couldn't fit the fact 
that they are FICHE into this scheme.  We decided that the fact they were 
theses was more important to using qualifiers than the fact that they were 
fiche.  

Were it possible all we would have to do is specify that the call prefix 
line allow multiple values.
