Here is a corrected translation: I have discovered a bug in the dbase unit for TP from CT magazine (12/89). When I want to sort [may be "select" or "read through"] the field names I only get the first nine places of the ten-figure field name. Has anyone made similar discoveries, and eliminated them? Note: I sent mail to the poster asking him to refrain from posting articles in German on American BB's. Also, I know this problem may not be that relevant, since it came from a German magazine, but I wanted to supply correct info in case anyone was actually working on it. No more on this, I promise. ---Travis Ich suche die Leidenschaft, die keine Leiden schafft.
