Tom, No, RBTI Cannot duplicate them. If they are, consider it DONE! You may want to create a CLEAN sample using CONCOMP database and then send it to R:DCC using the Concomp forms, reports, labels, etc. Your time and efforts will be greatly appreciated, >I would like to know if they are able to be duplicated in >other environments than my own.

The SKIP 1 function no longer works Try the sample database R:DCC sent you to understand the functionality and the way of using SKIP 1 command in EEP. I have a copy of that sample. Let me know if you want me to re-send it to you. Hopefully, it will help you understand. FYI, I have tested that sample myself and there is no problem with that. >2.

You need to create a SIMPLE reliable test using the CONCOMP database and then send it to R:DCC. Remember, if they are able to reliably replicate ANY submitted boo-boos on R:DCC, consider it FIXED! FYI, there are over 260 private beta testers, including, end-users, developers, small businesses, large corporations, educational & government agencies running patch-3 beta since March 2002 and have been current with the private in-line 3 beta since then. Majority of the developers/users are on this official list server. Once again, thanks for your efforts. Should you need to send any samples or details along with reliably replicable boo-boo(s) using concomp database, please send it to: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Very Best Regards, Razzak. ================================================ TO SEE MESSAGE POSTING GUIDELINES: Send a plain text email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the message body, put just two words: INTRO rbase-l ================================================ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: send a plain text email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the message body, put just two words: UNSUBSCRIBE rbase-l ================================================ TO SEARCH ARCHIVES: http://www.mail-archive.com/rbase-l%40sonetmail.com/
