There was a bug in v.1.00 that made the membership start date not work properly (it generally yielded a "?" value instead of a date), and I don't recall that this bug was formally reported as such (though it was fixed in version 1.02 and 1.03). If Dave's list doesn't mention this bug and it's fix, I may be able to dig up the problem and fix, but it will take me a little while to do so. Let me know if you encounter this problem and don't have the fix for it.
