***************************************************************
2. PREVIOUS FIXES 
***************************************************************

[Problem No. 001]
When a club record custom field is chosen for a user-defined 
report, label, or view, an error occurs upon preview. This 
does not happen when creating reports, labels, and view with 
membership fields.

[Problem No. 002]
Display/Copy Address option does not work when selected from 
the List menu. It only works when selected from the popup 
(right-click) menu.

[Problem No: 003]
Changes to a report's title on a system report do not reflect 
on the generated report, though changes to the title on a 
user-defined report work correctly.

[Problem No: 004]
When opening the Country Codes list, the list isn't sorted by 
country automatically.

[Problem No: 005]
Correct several import problems. 1) The Prefix, Suffix, Other 
Phone, and Other Phone Code fields are not importing correctly.
2) If the import data resides on a write-protected device, the 
error log attempts to write to that device and fails.

[Problem No: 006]
Once you enter the mm/dd portion of a birthdate, you cannot 
blank it out again.

[Problem No: 007]
When using the backup feature, the file size of the database 
being backed up was not being calculated correctly. In some 
cases, this would mean you would not receive a warning message 
that the database backup could not fit on the target drive.
Also, the backup process did not check to see that a floppy or 
other removable-media drive actually had media in it before
attempting the backup.

[Problem No: 008]
A database error occurs when importing custom fields for club
records.

[Problem No: 009]
When selecting the status for a User Report, View, or Label, 
the system one-character status code appears instead of the 
1-3 character user-defined code.
