QB Quirks
Brian,
I don't know how QB is opening files, but don't quite understand the
connection with the bug I've reported. What I described was changing the
file after QB built the catalog but long before it was actually archived.
QB shouldn't do anything with the file until it goes to archive. When
saving the file from ProWrite, there was no lock on the file, no error
reported when the file was saved. It seems to me that whether QB is
modified to handle this situation or not, it should at least not crash.
I'd like to expand my drive capacity soon, but currently live through the
floppy backups for such a small setup. Better to use 25 disks than not
have a backup!
