Paul KK4HD found the problem and fixed it. This is apparently a really old bug that no one ever caught before!

In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Larry, I tried to preserve some more fields when the search failed so making a change in the search fields keeps some old values. When you search for a call that does not exist, I noticed that the zone field comes up as zero. This will be interpreted as a search for '0' in the next search which makes it fail. Fixed for the next release. --Paul At 10:47 PM 6/20/2005, Larry Alkoff wrote: >Checking a large number of bureau cards this evening, I had problems with the >F8 function. > >When I hit F8 and enter the call _incorrectly_, the normal error message pops >up.
