I agree. Just to be sure about my meaning, there was no veiled implication that anybody, anywhere, had been remiss in this or any other area. My meaning was: - to express my positive impression about what RBTI did and how (quickly) they did it - to express my curiosity about what must be superlative management of their source Sorry if anything might have been construed as questioning for something potentially negative ... if anyone did take my meaning that way. I am impressed and just really curious as to how they manage to be so impressive, especially in this area of code/source management, which is, IMHO, a sine qua non of quick (and good/reliable) fixes and updates, as well as long-term development of the product.

Steve, It has been my experience that once in a great while we stumble across something that no one had ever hit before - at least no one had ever identified the issue - and when you can give RBTI the database and the clearly-defined steps to get there, they can find and fix legacy issues.

Oh, Mike, I appreciate the implied something-about-me, but, to tell you the truth, I don't know if it's easy "to put into words how wonderful life is, while you'R:e in the world", with apologies to Elton John and Bernie Taupin and, perhaps, all of y'all as well as RBTI. Truly, the ridiculously short cycle-time for this fix is impressive. It also causes me to have some thoughts/questions: - Had this problem ever been described/identified in ANY version? - (If not), the R:Team must be jam-up and jelly-tight on managing their code library ...? - My wife often says, "I'd rather be lucky than good." This is a fine philosophy, which she accepts but doesn't pursue, as it's certainly not a reliable strategy. However, even if by some confluence of variables within the Time-Space continuum, this fix was just one of those ultra-low-hangin' fruits, as it turned out, it's still WAY AWESOME, man! Hope that was sufficiently and appropriately superlative. ;-) Nice job, RBTI.
