Hi! I have complained in the past about uncontrolled calendar events changes. The answer was that I was not the only one and that it mostly happens when the computer is on for more of one day. I hope that in the new version this problem is taken care of (I did not receive a copy yet.). However, for the sake of discussion let's assume that it was not taken care of yet. Yesterday I sent a message about self-cleaning in the context of deleting cloned entries when the original entry is deleted. DTS doesn't do it automaticaly. I believe that at least it should offer an option to delete all clones when the original is deleted. The reason I am mentioning the clone deletion in this context is because there seems to be a design flaw permeating various aspects of the system. Probably the event uncontrolled changes are a result of the calendar not properly cleaning after itself as the memory gets used. If this is true, a basic change in quality control is required, so that strict rules minimizing the wasteful use of resources are implemented. Bye, Victor

Victor, I think you'll still have to exit the calendar before midnight with 4.1b. Some people have been able to leave it on overnight, and some continue to have problems. Oh, I forgot to mention in my last message that I passed on your delete clone suggestion. Sincerely, Martine Carlson Okna Technical Support
