Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: problems with sorting

Possible glitch or bug in RBASE 6.5: When using a 1024 X 768 screen resolution (my great new LCD monitor�s best resolution for me) I ran into the following problem when using RBASE 6.5++, Build 1.866opened to a database that contains a table with 190 columns. This is the biggest table in my database. The table contains responses from a 190 item questionnaire that I need to keep in one table. The table has a two-variable index key. When I sort this table it seems to disappear.  I have checked all of the RBASE settings that I know of, such as sort on, and scratch, etc. Packing the Dbase or the indexes doesn�t cure the problem either. Although it looks like the whole table disappears, if you double-click on one of the cells, the information for that cell that should be there opens up in the text editor, but nothing else. 

Work around: I have found that if you change the windows desktop screen resolution to 800 X 600 or lower compared to the 1024 X 768, and then open RBASE, connect to the database with this table and then try to sort it, the table sorts and displays perfectly.

Permanent fix: Is this lack of scalability fixed in RBASE 7.0?
