Another thing I didn't like about Prodigy back then was that Sears owned part of it. I HATED SEARS! I a...

Heyyyy, I'm testingggg heahh! :idea: Sorry, but I have a software developer background. I learned long ago that when coding the user interface you have to test for *stupid*.

Re: I Shamelessly admit I have no life in finding this bug.
Dale, This Does Not seem to do any damage (the user must have a pre-existing condition and that's not your fault) but you may want to squash this one. There is an opportunity for the user to make numbers appear at various places on the setup screen while accomplishing nothing but wasting time. I sha...

Re: Inconsistent barcode scans
In the example given; dropping a digit in the middle of the barcode. It seems this may be a processor time share issue. In the Windows world there is an adjustment for "Idle Sensitivity" and CPU priority for running programs. It could be that as the number is being passed from the scanner that the O...

Re: So you want to write software?
Let's not forget about the oportunity for CREATIVITY that comes after unwarranted optimism fails to kill the bug. It first appears as any other ordinary bug but after a few hundred attempts to kill it (step #2), you find you can't! You feel beaten down without a bit of self esteem. This is the point...
