If it isn't the first entry in worktodo.ini the result will be that the entry is removed by the program when PrimeNet signals this back.

QA is different - if the exponent is in currently active PrimeNet ranges you're stuffed, because PrimeNet can only cope with one person "owning" an exponent at a time & QA runs execute in parallel, whilst PrimeNet will completely disown exponents outside its current active ranges. I run QA assignments with PrimeNet comms disabled.
