[Logic] How to best use QRZ lookup and Log

Sun, 7 Sep 2003 18:24:40 -0700

I think that there is a difference between one's ability to type rapidly and
one's ability to spell. I know perfectly well how to spell "until" and most
other words for that matter.

However I think that there is room for disagreement on whether what you
refer to a "bug" really is or is not. I disagree that it is and after having
written enough code in my lifetime I think I have some grounds on which to
speak.

Excel, Lotus, etc all work the same way. The contents of the field are not
stored until you leave the cell. Logic works the same way. If you refresh
the form, data not stored will be cleared.
