Hmmm: I'm ALWAYS making mistakes with entering data against a schema that arbitrarily requires date before author, when somehow author before date seems more natural. (And yes, I do use tools that prompt me, but I can never remember to stop typing and wait for the prompt). I know why the technology has this restriction, but I think trying to promote it as a benefit is stretching a point! Michael KayReceived on Saturday, 5 June 2004 17:05:25 GMT
