Klaus, you are right! The dictionary entry is wrong. It would not make logical sense to be able to set the short name of something just as it is not logical to set the long or abbreviated name of it. Hence why we have ONLY set the name of it. The 'short' keyword would be superfluous. But the

Hi Paul. It gets upgraded automatically. If it is in a Form style, the swipe actions are turned off by default to avoid ruining your old versions. Practically all of the old code works as it did before. As it's just the engine that changes it's basically a straight forward swap-out that's done

Curry, Hehe, you are, of course, right and I'd be inclined to do it the 'non' way too. In simple terms, in the 'non' way you only store the changes (like SVC) rather than the whole field. But it's far harder to explain in detail and infinitesimally so when you think about the many possible
