Hi Rod,
    Say what you want...I'm a life subscriber...TR user by choice and still
DO think it is a shortcoming in the program. In my view it would be a better
program if it could incorporate the seamless ease of correcting any entry
in the log at will....WITHOUT having to use a separate text editor.
Wake up...it's a logging program....can you understand that maybe
I'd like to modify an entry in my log even after I've worked five others
Q's?
I'm getting the feeling I've fought this battle before....and I know no-one
wants to p*** off Tree.... myself included, but I would find the program
more useful with full editing capabilities. He already knows that. Tree
does a great job and really can do magic with all these special and
new commands/switches that he is always doing...I'm just hoping
some day he tackles this long term issue. RELAX....
