Any experts in class withdraws and LSAC?

Hi everyone!
So.. I have a withdraw on my transcripts from a billion years ago. It was due to time confliction and other reasons. My school did not count the withdraw as a fail or ding my gpa for it. I only spent a couple weeks in it, so was well within the acceptable withdraw time frame.
Would LSAC overlook this as it is "non-punitive", or will they punish me for dropping a class regardless?

On my transcripts, it looks like:

Art 199 Clay Sculpt. workshop Grade: A Repeat: N Attempted Credit: 3 Earned: 3 Pass: 0 GPA credits: 3 Quality points: 12
ENL 101 College Composition Grade: A Repeat: N Attempted Credit: 3 Earned: 3 Pass: 0 GPA credits: 3 Quality points: 12

WLD 125 Arc Welding I Grade: W Repeat: N Attempted Credit: 2 Earned: 0 Pass: 0 GPA credits: 0 Quality points: 0

Term totals: Attempted Credits: 8, Earned: 6, Pass: 0, GPA credits: 6, Quality points: 24, GPA: 4.00

I'm thinking it should be okay since it had no effect on the gpa, and wasn't a "Withdrawn/Failing". What say you?
And if it does, how would I go about maybe having this corrected at my CC so that it doesn't impact?

    I have two Ws on my transcript. No effect whatsoever on my GPA. You should be fine.

    Assuming no mistakes are made, you should be in the clear. I have several of these to no effect.

    Whew. Okay. Thanks guys. I know it seems like such a minor thing, but using the calculator, it can shave .1 off my GPA just like that. I'd rather it not!
