For ebase 2.0 users who also have a copy of FileMaker 5.0 or 5.5, here is a fix for the bug in the Code Tutorial reported yesterday:
1. Open FileMaker 5.0 or 5.5 and select as the file to open: "ebase.200". Enter user name "admin" and password "admin" (without quotes). 2. Go to ADMIN-->Code Tutorial and navigate to Page 6. 3. Using the FileMaker menu at the top of your screen, select View-->Layout Mode. 4. Click on the "Owner" field and use the FileMaker menu at the top of the screen to select Format-->Field Format. 5. In the "Field Format for Bucket 2" dialogue box, click in the field that currently shows "Project." 6. Use the scroll bar to scroll up one value and select "Owner." 7. Click "OK." 8. In the FileMaker menu, select View-->Browse Mode. The value list should now be correct. For users of the runtime version of ebase 2.0 (without FileMaker): we will be fixing this bug in version 2.01 that we release on or before April 10. It will be a snap to replace the 2.00 core files with the new 2.01 core files.
