Dan, I don't know what RBTI thought as they went through these, but often if an item seems to be overlooked, or passed by in favor of other suggestions, it's because RBTI has determined that there already are other ways to get the desired result.
For example: - There are predefined EEPs available on the EEPS tab of every kind of button, that include a "duplicate row" predefined action. You could put a button right next to a navigator and have it look like it was part of the navigator, with a duplicate row action. - From the R:> prompt, you can type 'LAU .' to bring up the Windows Explorer. - A CHOOSE command with the #LFILES syntax can select any file name, and could be followed immediately by a LAUNCH &vFileName command. You could create your own very tiny application file to do this, and "run" it from the Database Explorer. - You can prompt for a DATE with a DIALOG command, and preset the text variable to the default date you want (see below) - You can use a simple variable form to collect dates, and preset the default or defaults in that form.
