Hi,

I've got the following problem with

(bbdb-version t)
-> BBDB version 2.35 ($Date: 2002/03/11 20:48:59 $)

If I want to search for an entry matching a non-nil regexp I get

| bbdb: cannot acces the name field this way

This can only be prevented if I kill the .bbdb-buffer.  Then the
immediate following search is succesful and all following attempts to
search fail again.

I have tracked this down to `;;; user-fields: (name ...)' in my .bbdb
file. I do not know which function inserted this user-fields but this is
very confusing. (As I started to use XEmacs/Gnus/BBDB I didn't know how
to handle this error.)

,----[ ~/.bbdb ]
| ;;; file-version: 6
| ;;; user-fields: (name comment mailer newsgroups)
| ["Bart" "Simpson" nil nil nil nil ("[EMAIL PROTECTED]") ((notes
|  . "Do you know me?") (creation-date . "2001-11
| -05") (timestamp . "2001-11-08") (last-subj . "Who is Lisa?") (mailer
| . "Simpson Mail")) nil]
`----

A a solution to this error I delete the whole `user-fields' line. Is
this the recommed way? Which functionality is provided by the
`user-fields' they don't seem to me to match my user-fields as I also
have a field `creation-date', `xface' and so on.

Can this line safely be deleted?

Is this a bug, should I make a bug report?

TIA, Micha
