Gents:
Under WinME, do others see a one-letter transposition during copy/paste?
That is:
IF the string <$ XYZ > is copy/pasted to a line with the immediately
succeeding string < $ ABC > then what one expects to get on that line is
the concatinated string: < $ XYZABC >.
Instead of this expected string, one invariably gets: < $ AXYZBC > !!!
Thus, the last character ( A ) in the original string is transposed to
the beginning of the concatinated string like ( AX .... )
Another example is:
< she sells seashells > C/P---> <The quick brown fox > .... gives the
string :
< Tshe sells seashells he quick brown fox >
Sorta looks like: from my Fortran/C days ... if I were storing text info
in multi-dimensional string arrays, one of the subdimensions got started
counting with a ( 1 ) not a ( 0 ) ...%^/ . I have NO idea how ABW
actually keeps track.
I'm running: ABW_1.0.2 / WinME_4.7 fully updated / AMD_900 .
